Are you an experienced Detective Sergeant ready for your next career move? At Dorset Police, we're looking for talented and motivated officers from Home Office forces who want to bring their skills, experience and passion for policing to one of the most scenic and rewarding force areas in the country.

Whether your background is in neighbourhood policing, response, investigations, safeguarding, roads policing or a specialist department, you'll find opportunities to make a real difference while continuing to develop your career. This is more than a transfer. It's an opportunity to join a force that values your experience, supports your development and offers an exceptional quality of life.
Relocation Support

We understand that moving to a new force can be a significant decision. To help make the transition easier, eligible transferees may be able to access a relocation package of up to £8,000. The package can contribute towards:

• Removal and moving costs
• Legal and conveyancing fees
• Temporary accommodation
• Travel expenses associated with relocation

To be eligible, officers must relocate and be in post by 31 March 2027.
Where Could You Be Based?

Working across Dorset, you'll join a force that serves a unique and diverse county, policing everything from busy coastal destinations and historic towns to rural communities and countryside landscapes. Posting decisions are made based on organisational need and operational demand. However, we recognise that location is an important consideration and will take your preferences and personal circumstances into account wherever possible.

As a member of Dorset Police, you will be part of a force-wide team and may be required to travel throughout the force area in support of operational requirements.
