The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service has launched its 2024 Summer Local Recruitment Campaign, seeking applications from young Caymanians who are interested in joining the RCIPS as Recruit Constables.

In addition to advertisements online and in local media, the RCIPS is also conducting open houses in Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac, where interested candidates can speak to officers from various units to gain a firsthand perspective on what life as a police officer is like, and to learn about the various career paths available within the Service.

The recruitment is open to all Caymanians, along with Permanent Residents with the right to work, who are between the ages of 18 and 40.

“Policing is a rewarding and noble profession. There is no other job like it, and no two days are the same,” says Commissioner of Police Kurt Walton. “Every year we seek young Caymanians who will answer the call to serve their communities as police officers. These young people bring with them a variety of skills, experience, and local knowledge, which are of great value in our mission of keeping our islands safe. We look forward to welcoming the newest group of RCIPS recruits, who, along with our other recent recruit class graduates, will serve as the future of our organisation.”

The last day for applications is Tuesday, 14 May, 2024, and successful candidates will go through a six-stage selection process before they are formally offered the role. Following this, Recruits will undergo their initial training, and upon completion, will be officially deployed on active duty as Recruit Constables.
