The Police in a press release noted that they are looking to attract new recruits who are interested in a disciplined career in law enforcement which according to them, “fulfils its annual Cabinet-approved increase in the number of officers over the next three year period.”
Sharpest & Brightest – CoP Matthews
Commissioner of Police (CoP), Michael B. Matthews in a comment says further, the force is looking to attract the sharpest and brightest amongst those who qualify.
“In the past, attracting young persons born in the BVI to the Force has been challenging. But we know that there are many bright and capable young men and women within our community that want to be part of creating a safer, more law-abiding Territory to live in.”
The Top CoP added, “Ultimately, this is where they will live, invest their lives and raise their families. We want them to be part of creating the environment they want to live in.”
High School Diploma
The release further notes that to qualify, “persons will need a high school diploma or its equivalent and be between the ages of 18 and 30. The salary range is between $22,700 and $33,300.”
The deadline for applications is April 30, 2019, and the RVIPF notes that employment applications can be found by clicking the RVIPF tab on the Government’s website, www.bvi.gov.vg.

Also, there needs to be a proper balance with locals and expatriate officers.
It seems that no one in BVI qualifies for the job, unless you can show me Arawak, native person. In today's sensitive world, it is important to understand the words we are useing. As predominant population of BVI today is desending from the african slave workers broth to VI after they were colonised, the same population is therefore not "indigenous men and woman". I belive that facing the fact that all citizens have the same rights, it would be wise to simply call on citizens of BVI to apply for the job.
