Police ranks, dependent on country, are similar to military ranks [4] [5] in function and design due to policing in many countries developing from military organizations and operations, [6] such as in Western Europe, [7] [8] former Soviet countries, [9] and English-speaking countries.
Ranks above chief superintendent are usually non-operational management roles, and are often referred to as "chief officer" ranks, but the longer phrase "chief police officer" or similar in legislation is specifically a commissioner or chief constable, a "senior police officer" being their immediate deputy. [16]
Chief Constable is the rank used by the chief police officer of every territorial police force in the United Kingdom except for the City of London Police and the Metropolitan Police, as well as the chief officers of the three 'special' national police forces, the British Transport Police, Ministry of Defence Police, and Civil Nuclear Constabulary.
The Assistant Chief holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and reports directly to the Colonel and has authority over the units. Majors are responsible for a command within the Highway Patrol. A captain is a troop commander in the Field Operations Bureau or a division commander in one of the other bureaus.
