Draft:Jason Hogg

Jason has 27 years police service and has worked in three police forces. He originally joined Cleveland Police in 1995, before transferring to Hampshire and the Isle of Wight Constabulary in 2001 and joined Thames Valley Police in June 2016, most recently serving as Deputy Chief Constable.

On 1 April 2023, Jason was appointed as the tenth Chief Constable of Thames Valley Police, taking over from former Chief Constable John Campbell.

Jason grew up in a deprived area of Hartlepool in Cleveland. He was fortunate enough to get a place at the University of Oxford in Christ Church College. During his time at University, Jason volunteered for The Gatehouse, a homeless charity in the city. It was here he met a number of police officers who were regularly called to incidents at the charity. It was those Thames Valley Police officers who inspired Jason to join the service.

He has spent most of his career working in Criminal Investigation roles, serving as a detective in every rank. He has been a member of the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) Child Protection and Child Death working groups and was involved in delivering training on the National Senior Investigation Officer (SIO) development programme.
