Metropolitan Police

About Us

Our officers and staff are at the heart of policing in the Met. Every day we rely on thousands of officers and staff who are committed to working together and with our communities and partners to successfully deliver the policing that Londoners need and deserve; people who share our values, are committed to high standards, and want to help create change for a better London.

What it’s like to work for us?

If you’re looking for a challenging and rewarding role that will help you reach your potential, provide career opportunities, and make a lasting impact on communities and London, policing could be for you.

The type of jobs we recruit for?

We have two pathways to become a Police Officer, one to become a detective and also volunteer Special Constable roles.
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.

From accountancy to administration, finance to forensics, HR to IT and occupational health to operational support, there are jobs for everyone.
