Who we’re looking for

We need someone able to take their experience of account management and relationship development and use it, through effective leadership of a team, to give our partner police forces and the Police Now participants that work in them an outstanding experience and the ability to have a positive impact on the frontline. You’ll be a great relationship builder, able to have both easy and difficult conversations effectively, with resilience, energy, optimism, adaptability and a desire to work in a fast-moving, evolving, innovative start-up. You must possess a genuine commitment to public service and the Police Now mission and values plus as a belief in personal responsibility. As a real team player, you’ll enjoy working with colleagues inside Police Now as much as you do with police forces across the country, and always with the best interests of our participants and partner forces at the forefront of your mind.

• The ability to see the strategic picture and to communicate this to colleagues, prioritise activities and escalate opportunities and risks accordingly
• The ability to work flexibly and quickly in what can be an ambiguous and fast-moving environment
• Exceptional, proactive relationship building skills
• Excellent organisation, time and project management skills
• Outstanding attention to detail, including the ability to write accurately and persuasively
• Willingness to travel within England and Wales, to work occasional evenings and have some overnight stays as required
• A strong understanding of UK policing may be an advantage

What you’ll get from us

• The opportunity to work at a true start-up and to help shape the Police Now programme
• Be part of a society-defining organisation, make a difference and change the way that the most challenged communities in the country interact with the police
• A great team passionately working to build the next generation of leaders inside and outside policing
• A bright, airy, modern and buzzing office in Moorgate, Central London
• Competitive salary of approximately £50,000 dependent on experience
