Make a difference  - serve your local community

The Police Constable is the key rank in the police service -  and nearly three-quarters of all the police officers in England and  Wales are police constables.

PCs have a wide range of duties; ask any PC about his or her job and their first reaction will usually be: "every day presents a new challenge."

Duties include patrolling the streets on foot, on bicycles or in cars, answering calls for assistance, giving advice to the public, dealing with disturbances...and much more.

It is the police constable who is invariably first on the scene - whether it be a road traffic accident, burglary or violent crime.

They have to make the first - and often vital - decisions and need to be equipped with a whole range of skills to deal appropriately with all sections of society.

Suffolk Constabulary’s recruitment strategy is simple – we are after the best quality recruits to join one of the top performing police forces in the country.

In return we will offer you a varied and interesting policing career that covers both rural and urban areas within the county.

Does that sound like the job for you?
