Summary

We are looking for proactive, resilient and highly organised individuals to join our Resource and Incident Management team. This is a fast-paced and rewarding role where you will play a vital part in supporting frontline policing by managing resources, monitoring demand and helping to coordinate our response to incidents across Devon and Cornwall.

The successful candidate will be confident making decisions, prioritising competing demands and communicating effectively with a wide range of colleagues and stakeholders.

This is an excellent opportunity for individuals who thrive in a dynamic environment and want to make a meaningful contribution to keeping our communities safe.

We are looking for flexible individuals who are open to working shifts, including nights, weekends and some bank holidays
