Recruitment for Police Constables and Special Constables

We are now recruiting for Police Constables and Special Constables! 

We can offer you a rewarding career where you can make a difference to someone whilst helping to keep the Isle of Man the safest Island in the British Isles. A career within the Isle of Man Constabulary is a challenging role where no 2 days are the same, and can be demanding role to undertake.  When officers go out on patrol they never know what they may be called to resolve and they deal with people from all walks of life in many different situations.  We will provide you with a variety of experiences you are unlikely to find elsewhere, all of which require a range of personal skills such as patience, courage, flexibility, understanding and the ability to think and act quickly.  We need people who are dedicated to serving their local community and helping to keep people safe.  

Our work is extremely varied and includes dealing with matters such as road traffic collisions, disturbances, public order incidents, investigating crime, apprehending and interviewing suspects, obtaining statements from witnesses and checking the security of premises.  We also deal with large public events like sports meetings and shows.
