South Australia were recruiting policemen just a short while ago - someone may know if they are still keen to have UK recruits.

Hi

My brother and his wife are in the police and last year they went through the process to join South Australian Police. They emmigrate week on Monday!!!

On the internet put in SAPOL and it will bring up sites for South Australian Police Force. There is a careers link.

Good luck.

Hi Casty

Welcome to Poms in Oz.

I've a feeling that the WA police may be recruiting as well at the mo. I'd suggest trying the police forces for each of the individual States plus have a look at the Australian Federal Police wwebsite as well, perhaps.

Best wishes

Gill

You're right Gill, WA did a big recruitment drive last year in the UK for police officers - and even though there isn't a big drive on at the moment - i really don't think they'd turn their noses up to experienced officers

Family member works for South Australia police and their next big recruitment drive - as she understands - will be in March 08! It's a possible in - if you decide you dont like SA once there you can always look to transfer!!

GOOD LUCK!
