Company Overview

Protecting our communities. This is our mission. Policing is fundamentally about working with people. Ensuring we treat everyone with fairness and respect, in every interaction, both within our communities and our organisation is one of our core values. Preventing and thoroughly investigating crime, supporting victims and bringing offenders to justice. These commitments require us all to be courageous and do the right thing and cannot be achieved by any one person alone; it relies upon a team of over 8,500 staff, officers and volunteers, working alongside partner agencies and the public. Policing evolves along with the challenges we face and we strive to improve every day. New digital technologies and ways of working are transforming the way we deliver our service and to do so at the highest standard, means we require the very best talent to join our TVP family. Policing is a unique and rewarding career. This is your opportunity to take on a role with pride and confidence, inspiring change so we can become an excellent police force trusted by all our communities. We are proud to be Thames Valley Police and you will be too.
