Overview
Join Warwickshire Police as a PCSO – Mid 2026 Intake
Be the Difference. Be a PCSO.
Are you ready to make a real impact in your community? As a Police Community Support Officer (PCSO), you’ll be the face of Warwickshire Police — building trust, offering reassurance, and helping to create safer, stronger neighbourhoods.
This is your chance to step into a role that’s as rewarding as it is challenging. No two days are ever the same, and every interaction matters.
What’s in It for You?
- Salary: Over £31,000 (including allowances) — with annual pay rises (There will be a rise before you start!)
- Start Date: Mid 2026
- Hours: Full-time roles available; part-time options considered (email RecruitmentSupport@warwickshire.police.uk)
- Driving Licence: Full UK licence required
What Makes a Great PCSO?
You won’t carry handcuffs or make arrests — instead, you’ll rely on empathy, communication, and resilience. You’ll be trained to handle difficult situations with compassion and confidence, becoming a trusted presence in the community.
You’ll be working towards Level 1 of the Competency and Values Framework (CVF), which includes:
- Resolute, compassionate and committed
- Inclusive, enabling and visionary leadership
- Intelligent, creative and informed policing
The Recruitment Journey
- Apply Now — don’t wait!
