The Recruitment Process
Please use the link above to start your application to join the team. Applications will then be reviewed and you will then be invited to come to an induction day, where the training programme and commitment required will be explained.
Just by asking for us to make contact you are not committing yourself and we are fully aware that searching for missing people is not suitable for everyone.
Please contact us via email or the through the website, if you have any questions.
24 hours a day,
356 days a year.
As a trained member you may be called on to take part in searches for a missing person overnight or during working hours – so you’ll always need your gear packed and ready to go at a moment’s notice.
In return, we would ask you to be realistic about your availability, and talk to us we understand that not everyone can be on call all of the time, due to work and family commitments.
We would urge you to speak with your family and employer about this, we are realistic about our expectations. If you cannot be called on during working hours or have night time commitments please make us aware of these and we will not call you during these periods.
