We seek specialists who have held senior operational or strategic leadership positions - typically at superintendent level or equivalent - with a minimum of 20 years' frontline experience in policing, governance, justice, or public safety.

If you've led at the highest levels and want to apply that experience internationally, we'd like to hear from you.

Our specialists must demonstrate real operational credibility - the ability to advise and deliver based on personal experience of the challenges our clients face. We value practitioners who can work with authority and sensitivity in diverse cultural contexts.

Your track record of delivery in high-pressure environments is what our clients need and trust.
