International Medical Graduate jobs

For every ambition. Every action. Every change.

If you’re ready to step into a role where your decisions make a real difference to people’s lives and the communities you serve, this is where your journey begins.

As a Times Top 100 Graduate Employer, our two-year programme is designed to train and develop graduates from any degree discipline who are committed to building public trust and confidence in policing, reducing crime, and creating a lasting positive change in communities.

You don’t need any prior policing knowledge or experience to apply. What matters most is that your motivations align with our mission and that you’re driven to make a meaningful impact.

THE ROLE

In a neighbourhood policing role, you’ll be at the heart of creating safer communities, working proactively to address long-term issues and improve quality of life. You’ll spend two years embedded in a neighbourhood policing team using your problem-solving and decision‑making skills to identify risk, harm and threats. You’ll tackle complex challenges such as anti-social behaviour, knife crime, violence against women and girls (VAWG), safeguarding vulnerable people, and drug-related crime.

Policing is demanding but deeply rewarding. You’ll be supported every step of the way as you develop the skills to make a real, lasting difference, both on the frontline and as a future leader.

The force’s priorities include increasing neighbourhood policing visibility, tackling issues such as anti-social behaviour and violence against women and girls (VAWG) and protecting vulnerable people.
