How to apply

Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): PSIRA registration certificate showing armed response plus driver's licence and ID copies.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Hammarsdale.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

Put your firearm competency and armed response course at the top. Without both, the CV is not read further.
Mention the areas you know well. Companies prefer officers who can find addresses fast without a GPS.
