Five new communications operators join Hertfordshire Constabulary

Hertfordshire Constabulary welcomed five new recruits who join a busy Force Communications Room (FCR), where all the initial emergency requests for police help come through to the constabulary.

They will also be part of a team who respond to non-emergency calls, webchat and online crime reports around the clock 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

On Thursday (22 February), family and friends attended a graduation ceremony at police headquarters in Welwyn Garden City, where the group were presented with certificates to mark the completion of their intensive training.

Digital and Innovation Manager Richard Wilde, said: “Congratulations to each of you for embarking on this rewarding journey where you will no doubt make a difference to our communities in Hertfordshire. At times, the job will be tough, but I know that you will take every situation in your stride and provide the best service to those who need us. You’ll be supported every step of the way and I wish you all the very best.”

We are currently recruiting for more communications operators with applications short-listed on a weekly basis.

Communications operators work flexibly, including weekends, and evenings/nights.
