Chief Inspector Jon Carter

Jon is the policing commander for Arun and Chichester and is responsible for the delivery of local policing in Arun and Chichester districts. He leads both the local Response Teams and the local Neighbourhood Policing Team consisting of both police officers and Police Community Support Officers who together are dedicated to protecting our communities, catching criminals and delivering an outstanding service to our communities.

Alongside his current role, Jon has a number of operational command roles including firearms and public order as well as being the force lead for Police Community Support Officers and anti-social behaviour. In these roles, Jon works with colleagues across the force to ensure that colleagues are able to deliver the best possible service to the public and that as a force we are making proportionate use of the legislation that is available, as well as commanding the deployment of officers with specialist skills to deal with specific incidents.
