The Northern Ireland Policing Board (the Board) is seeking to appoint a number of inspirational leaders as Assistant Chief Constables within the PSNI to support the Chief Constable, Deputy Chief Constable and Chief Operating Officer in delivering on the PSNI commitment to be a victim focused police service that places victims at the heart of everything the organisation does.

The successful candidates will already have demonstrated a breadth and depth of operational command experience and have a proven track record of leading people and performance, role modelling values and driving change in policing.

They should be strong, visible and resilient leaders who will work with the community, colleagues, partner organisations and stakeholders to support the delivery of the PSNI’s neighbourhood policing, crime prevention and organisational culture transformation strategies.

The successful candidates should be comfortable representing the organisation at all levels, with strong relationship management skills, an ability to motivate and inspire people, encouraging innovative thinking and a problem-solving mind-set to get the best out of officers and staff. If you have the skills, professionalism and enthusiasm needed or one of these key roles the Board looks forward to hearing from you.

Candidates must have successfully completed the Strategic Command Course (SCC), the Police Executive Leadership Programme (Level 5) or equivalent and have extensive operational command experience. 

For the right candidates these posts offer a unique opportunity to make a significant difference to the PSNI, to policing and to the people of Northern Ireland. This role also attracts a removal and relocation package.

The current cadre of officers on the Police Executive Leadership Programme are eligible to apply for this ACC competition and anyone successful will be temporarily promoted until they achieve final sign off by their Chief Constable and the College of Policing. 

CLOSING DATE: MONDAY 4 NOVEMBER AT 12 NOON

The Board and PSNI are committed to being representative of the communities we serve and welcome all applicants interested in a career in policing. Applications are particularly welcome from the Roman Catholic community, women and members of Black and Minority Ethnic Groups, as they are currently under-represented at senior levels in the PSNI. Appointment to this key role will be based solely on the key principles of merit. 

We are committed to developing a diverse workforce and to promoting an inclusive organisational culture where everyone is treated with dignity, fairness and respect.
