West Mercia’s Police and Crime Commissioner is starting the search for a new Chief Constable for the force, following the announcement that David Shaw is to retire.
John Campion said: “West Mercia is a good police force and this is a real opportunity for an exceptional leader to take it forward. I am committed to creating a safer West Mercia, and I will be appointing someone who shares that commitment; Someone who ensures we meet the current and future challenges policing will face and someone that will help me continue to modernise the force and make sure it is equipped for the 21st century.”
“The post has now been advertised, and there will be an open, transparent and thorough recruitment process to follow.”
