The free careers service for police leavers
See what your service is worth in civilian work.
Every job here is matched against the skills the job actually gave you — investigation, command, compliance, intelligence — not just the title on your warrant card. Apply once and a consultant who knows the sector takes it from there.
Free for candidates · No account needed to browse · Your CV is never sold or shared without your consent

From the founder
Built by someone who made the jump
I spent seven years in the police — starting on the beat, then moving into detective work. It taught me to stay calm under pressure, dig into complex problems, and find what actually matters. Nobody told me those skills would travel. They do.
During the pandemic I stumbled into tech and havent stopped since. These days I live in Melbourne, Australia. The hardest part of leaving wasn't learning the new job. It was working out how to explain what six years of service is worth to a civilian employer.
That's why After Duty Jobs exists. Every job here is translated into the skills your service actually gave you — so you don't have to make that case alone.
