Dispatch

Please note that we currently have no vacancies for dispatch roles in the team.

The role

As part of our dispatch team you’ll be responsible for the ongoing management of police incidents following the initial 999 calls.

This involves deploying officers and police resources, monitoring progress and providing ongoing backup and support to officers to ensure they have all the information they need.

It’s an important role as you’ll be continually monitoring incident progress and the welfare of dispatched officers, while undertaking background checks to inform officers – all of which should be delivered with the highest levels of customer service.

Plus, you’ll provide updates and communicate with our partner agencies.

The role is challenging and highly rewarding. By supporting our frontline you’ll be making a real difference and giving back to the Greater Manchester community.

Pay and benefits

Salaries can start from up to £35k for full-time roles. This includes allowances which may not be available during the training period. 

Dispatch positions in our Force Contact Centre offer the opportunity to carry out a highly specialised role within a supportive team environment. You’ll build on your existing skills and abilities, and benefit from extensive training and support.
