Devon and Cornwall confirmed Chief Superintendent Nikki Leaper and Chief Superintendent Glen Mayhew have been appointed as Assistant Chief Constables.
Both are internal candidates and they will start their roles next month.
Chief Superintendent Leaper is appointed as Assistant Chief Constable for Innovation, Contact and Demand overseeing the contact centre for 999 and 101.
She joined the force in 2003 and has held a number of roles in uniform, intelligence, business and operations. In 2008 she spent sixteen months of her career at the Home Office on secondment.
Chief Superintendent Mayhew is appointed Assistant Chief Constable for Operations; a role which he carried out during the successful G7 Leaders Summit in 2021.
He has been with Devon & Cornwall Police since 1993 and held Command roles including Director of Intelligence, BCU Commander for South Devon and Commander of Alliance Operations (covering Devon & Cornwall Police and Dorset Police).
He is the South West regional lead for public order, armed policing, roads policing and hostage and crisis negotiation.
Chief Constable Shaun Sawyer QPM said: They bring with them a wealth of experience and a career in serving the public and those in need. They have worked in roles across the force and will bring that expertise and knowledge with them into the executive team.
“They are respected by colleagues, partners and will bring increased focus on delivering operational policing and improved service to our communities and visitors.”
Northamptonshire’s Chief is also beginning a search for a new member of the senior team after the force’s Strategic Lead for Diversity, Equality and Inclusion announced he’s been poached by North Yorkshire.
Superintendent Elliott Foskett is joining the force as its new Assistant Chief Constable.
He said: “I will miss my wonderful Northants colleagues and friends but I’m also really looking forward to working alongside some wonderful new people. Can’t wait to start.”
