Commissioner of Police Mr. Derek Byrne says “We are working towards developing the RCIPS into a world class police service. We want to encourage Caymanian men and women to join our ranks, especially women, as there have been few female candidates in previous recruitments.  We also want to facilitate the growth of local police officers within the organization and so it is important for us to maintain a multicultural image and show diversity. In order to do this we must increase the number of Caymanians among our ranks.”

Applicants must be physically fit (demonstrated through passing the “5.4 Bleep Test”) with at least 3 CXC passes or equivalent, to include Maths and English.  The recruitment process is lengthy, encompassing written tests, a physical fitness exam, background checks, computer skills test, an interview and a medical examination.
