Want to help make Cambridgeshire safer?
Cambridgeshire Police Authority (CPA) would like to hear from people across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough who want to help make the county safer.
The Authority has launched a recruitment campaign to attract applicants for four of its Independent member posts. They want to hear from people who can represent a broad range of local communities and have the ability to challenge accepted views in a constructive way. Successful candidates will make a positive contribution to the Authority's core role: ensuring that Cambridgeshire has an effective and efficient police force.
The Authority is made up of local people, eight of whom are 'Independent' members - selected from the community - who, together with nine councillor members, aim to ensure the safety of Cambridgeshire's thousands of residents by maintaining an efficient and effective police service. The Authority is looking for applicants with the relevant skills, experience and knowledge (detailed on its website or available by telephone) to help achieve its aims.
Applicants must be over 18 and live or work within the area covered by Cambridgeshire Police Authority. A commitment of around eight hours per week is required, for which an allowance and expenses are payable upon appointment in October for a period of four years. For more information, and to apply, please visit www.cambs-pa.gov.uk/vacancies.cfm or call 0845 345 4335. Closing date is 3rd June.
