    Status - Full Time
    Contract Type - Permanent
    Shift Allowance - Yes

    The starting salary for this role will usually be at the bottom of the salary range and will be pro-rata if the working hours are less than full time.

    We really welcome your interest in joining our Police Force.

    It is a privilege to lead the teams in Surrey Police and Sussex Police who continuously work selflessly and tirelessly in order to keep people in our counties safe.

    Surrey Police are seeking applicants for the position of Custody Detention Officer which is a civilian role within the custody suite.

    Custody detention officers perform an essential role in the smooth running of the custody suite, ensuring the safety and comfort of those persons who have been arrested, visitors and contractors who may be present.

    You will receive training in relevant aspects of the law, conflict management, food preparation, first aid as well as also being trained to take fingerprints and DNA samples.

    You need to be competent at using computers and will receive further IT training enabling you to enter data into our secure systems relevant to those arrested.

    You will be based at one of our Custody Centre's (Guildford, Staines or Salfords) but may occasionally be required to work elsewhere for which travelling costs will be met.

    Upon completion of training you will be responsible, as part of a well-drilled team, for all aspects of detainee care including security, supervising exercise, facilitating legal visits and providing food.

    You will work with custody medical teams for both physical and mental health and oversee other entitlements as required under legislation.

    Working in a close knit team under the supervision of a police Sergeant and Inspector, you will have dealings with persons from all walks of life.

    Being firm but fair, compassionate and having a sense of humour are all qualities which are vital to this role as well as being a problem solver and self-starter.

    generous annual leave allowance
    discounts for everyday spend
    generous and supportive parental leave
    financial and mental wellbeing guidance and support
    discounted contributory healthcare scheme

    It's really important that our officers and staff can be themselves in the workplace and we know that as an organisation we'll grow from the variety of thinking, approach and skills that diversity brings; all of which help us to deliver a better policing service.

    We have multiple staff support groups who help to improve our understanding of minority issues and ensure they are reflected in our work.

    We are proud members of the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index and Disability Confident, a signatory of the Race at Work Charter and aligned with the Armed Forces Covenant and the HeForShe movement.

    We value the differences that people bring from all backgrounds and communities.

    Regardless of age, sex, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression, disability, social status or religious belief, we would love to hear from you.

    The unsocial hours allowance for this role is £5,847.Due to the sensitivity involved within the role a high level of integrity will be needed, therefore successful applicants will be subject to security vetting.

    You will be permanently based at one of the three custody suites (Staines, Guildford or Salfords), however, at times you will be required to travel to any of the custody suites in order to cover staff shortages.

    It is therefore essential that you hold a current and valid driving licence and have access to a personal vehicle.

    If successful you will be required to work at different locations across the force and will need to be prepared to travel to these various locations for which travelling expenses will be paid.

    All successful applicants will need to undertake a written health assessment, and where appropriate, participate in a health interview and/or medical assessment as deemed necessary by the Occupational Health Department.

    Please note, that although over the course of 12 months your average working weekly hours equates to 36 per week, in reality you will be working 12hr shifts, which is 2 early shifts hrs, followed by 2 night shifts and then 4 days off.

    Approximately once every 8 weeks, you will accrue 2 extra days off giving you 6 days off.
