Protective Services
Saving lives as the first call of response, protecting others from any type of threat or danger, and generally keeping the country safe are all incredibly important jobs.
You could be working on the frontline for one of the country’s emergency services, to serve and protect for the police, the prison and probation service, the fire service, the ambulance service, the Royal Navy, the Royal Marines, the Army, the RAF, or UK Border Force.
It’s not for the faint hearted, but if you think you’ve got what it takes, our protective services study programmes will make a whole range of exciting and challenging careers available to you.
