Vacancy - Police Constable

Are you ready to bring your operational policing experience to a dynamic and specialised setting? The Port of Liverpool Police are recruiting Police Constables to join our high-visibility patrol team, safeguarding one of the UK’s most vital maritime gateways.

Another key part of the role is the management of traffic flow throughout the port, ensuring safe passage for vehicles and rail freight in line with legislation.  You will also respond to incidents professionally, reporting outcomes accurately to the control room, supervision, and the Chief Officer.
