One job-a million possibilities
A career with the AFP can take you into the community, across the country or around the globe.
Combating local crime in the ACT, cracking national e-crime scams, investigating international drug syndicates, working with other law enforcement agencies on counter terrorism, heading overseas to liaison posts or peacekeeping missions, or providing non-policing support-it's one job, with a million possibilities.
The AFP will shortly be moving to an annual intake model whereby applicants will be invited to apply once a year to be considered for a sworn policing role as either a Police Recruit or Lateral Transfer recruit. This model will provide applicants with specified intake dates, and a more efficient and timely recruitment process. The timing of each annual intake will be based on operational requirements and notification of intakes will be advised through national and regional press advertising campaigns and through the AFP website.
People interested in becoming AFP Police Officers are encouraged to regularly visit this site and explore the various functions and operations of the AFP. A career with the AFP can take you into the community, across the country or around the globe.
