From the Commissioner

Why work for Met Police?

London is one of the most exciting and diverse cities in the world – and policing it is no easy task. It takes a vast number of people from all sorts of backgrounds with a wide range of skills and experience.

Working for the Met doesn’t have to mean patrolling the streets. Just as important as our uniformed officers is our 14,000-strong team of professional and support staff working behind the scenes. It’s these skilled people who provide the organisational capability to police London.

We want to lead 21st century policing and:

  1. Care for each other, work as a team and be an attractive place to work.
  2. Seize the opportunities of data and digital tech.
  3. Learn from experience, from others, and constantly strive to improve.
  4. Be recognised as a responsible, exemplary and ethical organisation.

Qualifications are no longer a requirement for all posts, effective communication and teamworking skills are always be welcomed, together with resilience, customer focus and respect for race and diversity.

Character

All employees of the Met, whether they wear a uniform or not, are in a position of responsibility and trust. As such, they should be law-abiding people with proven integrity. If you’ve been convicted of a criminal offence, your suitability will be subject to careful consideration.

Applicants with previous Met service

Please note that individuals with previous Met service who left the Met as a result of a corporate Early Departure Scheme where compensation was awarded, such as redundancy, are not eligible to submit an application to re-join the Met in any police staff role for a period of five years from their date of leaving the organisation. Any applications received that do not comply with this will be automatically rejected.
