Ex-Military Careers

Andy Halliday if a former international hockey player and Specialist Firearms Officer with the Metropolitan Police. Andy joined the Police Force as a young 18-year-old recruit, working alongside various teams through his 30-year career going back to the 1980s. He was always driven by working with teams and spent most of his career on specialist units.

He spent the last 18 years as a Specialist Firearms Officer and instructor, regularly dealing with life-threatening situations and terrorism in both a domestic and global role. Andy expresses that his learning has been immense, but the ability to learn and improve from every activity with thorough debriefing and reflection is vital across both specialist policing and international sport.
