The Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) is an armed police service dedicated to the nuclear industry.

Given the critical nature of our work, it’s vital that we recruit skilled and committed professionals to our team.
Our role in protecting the nation’s security is unique, which is why being a CNC Police Officer is about so much more than traditional policing.

We play a key role in the Strategic Armed Policing Reserve and have been deployed across the country as part of Operation Temperer in response to terrorist attacks.
Upon joining the CNC you’ll be enrolled onto our world-class 19-week comprehensive Authorised Firearms training programme; we give our officers everything they need to become some of the most highly trained firearms professionals in the country, so there’s no need for you to have any prior policing experience when joining us.
After your 2-year probationary period, you’ll be eligible to apply for a role in one of our specialist areas to enhance your policing skills further, such as Dog Handler, Special Branch, Firearms Instructor or Strategic Escort Group Officer.
As police officers the public expect us to display the highest standards, values and professional qualities at all times. The CNC values and Code of Ethics applies to all police officers and sets out the principles standards of behaviour we expect to see, and you are responsible for displaying and delivering to the highest standards.
