About the Role:
ARU is proud to be a key partner in training the next generation of Police Officers. We are currently looking for an Instructor in Police Education to join our delivery team.
You will work with colleagues across our Police Education provision and Police partners. You will be responsible for educating cohorts of Student Police Officers for the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) and Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP).
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

We work with the 7 Forces in the East of England (Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Norfolk and Suffolk) and the Metropolitan Police in London.
