£29,907 Starting Salary + Great BenefitsFIND YOUR BEAT!Protecting your streets.
Caring for your community.
Taking pride in what you do.From Intelligence Operator to Armed Officer, wherever you see yourself specialising, we'll help you find your beat.
Police Officers are the face and voice in the community - they're on the ground, speaking to victims, preventing crime and making a real difference.
They come from different walks of life but are united by the same goal - to keep communities safe.From Liverpool's bright lights to Sefton's sandy beaches, you'll be serving a population of 1.5 million and covering a geographical area of 647 square kilometres.
Being a part of Merseyside Police is a unique experience.
You won't just be building better communities, you'll be building a career that counts.We want our people to reflect the communities we serve, people who can bring diversity of experience, people who are willing to protect our streets.
It's not always easy, some days will be tougher than others, but the sense of pride makes it worth every second.
Whether you're a college leaver, a recent graduate, or you're looking to study on the job, we've got an entry programme to suit you.
Police Constable Entry Programme (PCEP) Unlike the other entry routes to become a police officer that require applicants to already hold a degree (or in the case of the PCDA work towards attaining one), this two-year programme does not require you to gain a related qualification.
The programme is about developing the skills, knowledge and behaviours needed to be ‘confirmed in rank' as an operational police officer.
The recruitment entry requirements are the same as those for the PCDA.It's a two-year programme where you'll focus on learning the skills needed for the job rather than working towards a qualification.
Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) Earn while you learn with the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA), a three-year programme where you can study for a degree whilst training on the job.From day one you will learn and train as a student officer and be appointed a Tutor Constable who will chart your progress as you alternate between periods of study and working on the front line, putting theory into practice with help from officers and staff.
Everyone's in the same boat so apprentices can share experiences and set up study groups.By the time you have completed your three years, you will graduate as a fully-fledged Merseyside Police Officer and be awarded a BSc (Hons) Degree in Professional Policing Practice.Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP)If you want to join the ranks of Merseyside's police officers and already have a degree or will be graduating before the proposed intake date, then the Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) is the route for you.
Based on a curriculum from the College of Policing's new PEQF framework, this intensive two-year course combines study with patrol work alongside frontline officers.
Run in conjunction with John Moores University the DHEP leads to a Graduate Diploma in Professional Policing Practice validated by Liverpool John Moores University.New recruits are assigned to one of our training policing departments where you'll be appointed a Tutor Constable, who will chart your progress as they alternate between periods of study and full operational duties, putting theory into practice.Once fully trained, all successful officers will be well qualified, both academically and operationally to work within the modern policing environment.Join us and you'll be on the ground, preventing crime and making a real difference to people's lives.
It's not always easy, it's not always predictable, but the sense of reward and excitement is like nothing else.Nothing beats being a Merseyside Police Officer…Key Requirements
Level 2 Maths and English Language GCSEs which can be Grade C/4 and above or Level 2 Functional Skills or equivalent.
We can only accept qualifications which are equivalent to this level of Maths and English specifically and cannot accept qualifications in other subjects.
5 years employment/education history without gaps as part of the experience and education history section of your application form.
We will use this information to obtain references with your permission.
If you have unsuccessfully applied for any Police Officer with Merseyside or any other Home Office force within the past 3 months, you must wait 3 months from the date of application before applying again.
Our Commitment to InclusionBuilding a workforce that represents our communities is important to us.
Not only do we aim to attract and keep people with the best skills and highest potential, we want to attract people into policing who may not have considered a career with us before.
We particularly welcome applications from females, and black and ethnic minority candidates; these groups are growing yet are under-represented within Merseyside Police at officer level currently.To help us achieve a workforce that represents our communities, we have a dedicated Inclusion team who work to encourage people from diverse communities to build their career with our force.
They also provide support and guidance throughout the job application process to candidates from under-represented groups.
