Police staff

A call handler answers emergency calls in the Contact and Control Room

At the police station, there are other members of staff who work there who are not police officers or PCSO's, these are called Police support staff.

In fact, there are more than 1,200 people at Norfolk Police who work in a wide variety of jobs to help the police officers and PCSOs (Police Community Support Officers) achieve the best they can.

These jobs include call handlers who answer emergency calls in the Contact and Control Room to the car mechanics who look after the police vehicles.

There are also staff who work on the police websites (like this one!), take photographs of crime scenes, make sure all the computers work or make sure everyone is happy in their job.

So whether you are good at maths, English, fixing things or are good with a computer, it is worth knowing that Norfolk Police looks for people from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences with all sorts of different abilities to help keep Norfolk safe.

Maybe you would like to work for the police in the future?

Norfolk Police employs over 1,200 people in a wide range of jobs to help the Police.
