About Hertfordshire Constabulary

We are a modern, proactive and flexible police force. We put the communities we serve first and are there for victims when they need us most.

We currently employ more than 2,400 police officers, and 1,600 police staff, who are supported by almost 150 special constables and more than 500 volunteers.

The county has a population of well over a million people. The communities we represent are diverse with our geographical area ranging from the urban boundaries of London and our large towns, including St Albans, Stevenage and Watford through to rural villages in the countryside.

Chief Constable Andy Prophet and his leadership team are based at headquarters in Welwyn Garden City, alongside staff that provide administrative support.

As well as our emergency response teams, at a local level Neighbourhood Policing Teams work with partners such as councils to promote safety and keep crime low.

We also have specialist investigation teams who help support and work to protect some of the most vulnerable people in our communities.

Ensuring we are providing the best service is essential. We are always reviewing our approach, learning from previous experiences and listening to feedback.

Everyone at Hertfordshire Constabulary takes personal responsibility to help create an inclusive workplace, where police officers and staff respect one another, feel valued for their differences and can be themselves. We are committed to providing reasonable adjustments, wherever needed so everyone feels welcome and can flourish.
