**Why Return to BTP?**

At BTP, our purpose is clear: to keep the travelling public safe across the nation’s railways. As a returning officer, you’ll bring insight, operational knowledge, and a strong foundation in community policing that genuinely makes a difference.

We’re looking for individuals who:

- Are dedicated to ongoing learning and professional development

If that sounds like you - we want to hear from you.

- Been dismissed from another force

- Been rejected for vetting at another Force within 2 years

- Retired from BTP

**Further internal reference checks will be completed by divisional HR, and final approval will be required from your Divisional Commander.**
