Essex Police currently has a record number of officers; we are getting bigger, better and stronger. But we don’t want to stop there.

We are looking for people who want to start their career, change their career, or transfer to us from another force to join our growing team.

Whether you want to be a detective, work in roads policing, our marine unit or in our local policing teams there is something for everyone.

 

Det Chief Supt Lucy Morris is the Deputy Head of Serious Crime. She said:

“There is so much variety in the job and opportunities to develop your skills in different areas across the force, to try new things and take on new challenges. Every day is different, this is a job where you will never be bored.

“Being a detective also allows you to work across various areas of policing, including volume crime, serious and organised crime and homicide; all of which are so rewarding in terms of the service we are able to provide to victims and their families while locking up some of the county’s most dangerous offenders.

“There is so much opportunity at Essex Police.”

"If it’s something you have considered, don’t hesitate to apply.”
