Police Officer jobs in United Kingdom

Being a police officer is less about formal qualifications and more about the skills you already possess—skills that you develop every day.

These skills come from your previous jobs, community involvement, friends, family, and the values you uphold.

During the police officer selection process, we look for these skills, and our high-quality training programmes will help you develop them further. This will enable you to confidently uphold the law and make a positive impact on the people, places, and communities of Scotland.

If you are over 18 years old, physically fit, have lived in the UK for at least three years at the time of application, and possess a manual driving licence, you might already have the skills we are looking for.
