Being an integral part of the Senior Leadership Team, you will be responsible for driving through the largest change to take place in our organisation’s history. You will achieve this by upholding our professional standards, overseeing the management of large teams and delivering projects, both locally, and across London.

Policing a city as large, complex and culturally diverse as London presents a wide variety of challenges.
