Dorset Police recognises the value and contribution of the Staff Support Networks that help us to create a fair and inclusive workplace, through support of staff in under-represented groups throughout the organisation.

This role will provide support to that effort. Please note that you need to have lived in the UK for at least 3 years in order to be eligible to apply for any role in the Police.
