Empowering growth and integrity
At Leicestershire Police, we oversee important functions like vetting, complaints, counter corruption, and learning from misconduct or incidents. Our focus is on making sure frontline staff have the right learning and support, and we’re ahead of the game when it comes to how we deliver it. Using tech, we offer "how-to" videos and a handy app that delivers key information straight to your phone. It's all about learning from peers in a collaborative environment.
Within our department, there's something for everyone. Whether it’s vetting, setting standards for new recruits, or working with the Counter Corruption team on sensitive investigations, there's always room for growth. Complaints are handled with care, ensuring we maintain public trust, even when it's challenging. Working with external partners like the Independent Office for Police Conduct is part of the job.
