Talking Blues – Episode 10: Russ Foster

Powered by RedCircle

Published: 29/05/2026
Length: 28mins

Police Oracle’s Deputy Editor Clive Hammond caught up with the Isle of Man Constabulary’s Chief Constable, Russ Foster, to discuss his career and why island life makes policing there so unique. It comes as the force looks to share how roles in the region can be both professionally rewarding, with exposure across the full spectrum of operations, alongside a work-life balance that brings safety and a quality of life that is increasingly difficult to find in larger jurisdictions. Find out more about opportunities there by contacting PoliceJobs@gov.im.

This episode of Talking Blues was presented by Clive Hammond and produced by Sam Spreadborough.
