Hampshire Police

About Us

We are one of the biggest forces in the country delivering policing services to the people of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. We’ve retained a strong neighbourhood policing approach and have more police officers in frontline roles than average.

Our purpose is to deliver SAFER communities, and the scale of this challenge includes:

  • policing across 1,500 square miles, land which is largely rural but with densely populated cities.
  • the changing face of crime, with similar trends to those nationally in terms of increased reports of cyber-crime, child sexual exploitation and domestic abuse.
  • a significant transport network including the M27 and M3, key rail hubs and two international airports.
  • critical national infrastructure sites to keep safe such as the ports in Southampton and Portsmouth and crucial oil refineries.

Whatever your interest we are likely to have something suitable. We look for all kinds of skills, because we know it takes all kinds of people to protect the public and make a real difference to people’s lives. Problem solving, compassion, resilience, respect, courage and teamwork; these are the qualities we are looking for. Different individuals will bring different strengths to a role – varying insights, experience and ideas.

Our aim is to recruit talented people with a diverse range of skills and experiences and we welcome applications from all sections of the community. Additional support or adjustments may also be available during the recruitment process for those with a protected characteristic or those from under-represented groups.

Whoever you are, and whatever you are able to offer us, working for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary provides the opportunity to really make a difference, providing a sense of satisfaction and achievement.
