Transferring officers

If you're looking for an opportunity to further your career, enhance your skillset and make a difference to the lives of millions of Londoners every day, then this is the time to join the Met.

You’ll get all the support you need to settle in at the Met, including any specific training for your new role. Remember you don’t need to live in London to join us.

In return, you could look forward to generous rewards including:

• allowances and London weighting totalling £6,906
• reduced rate access to a range of leisure, sports, restaurants and shops through our benefits platform
• up to 38 days of paid holiday, inclusive of bank holidays, dependent on length of service
• maternity, paternity, adoption and parental leave and flexible working options
• a comprehensive health and wellbeing service, including free fast track physiotherapy and free, 24 hour confidential phone line to access a range of support to help you stay healthy and well
• transferring officers have access to an oyster card (at no cost) which allows unlimited travel on all TfL services
• officers joining the Met after 1 July 2022 will have access to a new zonal travel scheme. The terms and prices of the zonal travel scheme do vary and are priced based on the distance that you live from London. For more information please contact our recruitment team by email or call for more information.

In addition, you'll have access to a wide range of discounts and special deals with major high street retail outlets and other organisations nationwide. Many of our Met buildings have subsidised staff restaurants, so this facility may be available to you depending on where you're normally based.
