Smile Police Recruitment - NZ

I work for a Police Force in the UK and heard that there is a drive by NZ Gov to take on Police PCSOs and Officers from the UK, however, just doing a quick search, not sure how up-to-date this info is. Can anyone kindly advise me if this is true and if possible include some feed back for me please.

Hope to hear from serving British Police Staff out there.

Many thanks

I've seen a few ad campaigns on TV for recruiting - unfortunately the police force in NZ has been under rather a lot of negative publicity at the moment as there have been a few high profile rape cases involving high ranking police officers along with some other mis-conduct alligations. I don't know details for recruiting especially from the UK, but I'm sure someone will know on the website.

Sorry cant help, I remember as few years ago on here we discussed the very thing and I think there was quite a bit of info posted but sorry I would not even know where to start looking.

If I do remember correctly I think that the salaries were pretty bad and not much choice in where you are positioned, but that could well have changed.

Sorry I cannot be of any more help but good luck with the search.

Thumbs up Re: Police Recruitment - NZ

Oh right, thanks for your replies. I was reading a thread over here that was saying Police in NZ wanted British Police over there so, though I'd look into it and see if I could get an interview if nothing else. I think so people found out before me and have the interviews next month.... I can't find the links/websites for the application pack... Drat.

Cheers & thanks!

Now I may just be a weirdo but looking at your avatar as got me thinking. Do you do parties?

Sorry I couldnt resist.

Anyway my wife as a mate(s) (both coppers) who's brother joined the Tauranga police force about 8 months ago. I will ask them if they can help.

Have you looked at the NZ police website?

Hi,
I'm also trying to find out about a transfer to the NZ Police. I e-mailed them 3 days ago but have heard nothing. I would be grateful for some info as well. Thanks.
