Kent Chief Constable Mike Fuller has been tipped as a successor to Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair.
Mr Fuller is said to be a top contender for the post as the UK's most senior policeman.
It comes after the shock resignation of Sir Ian on Thursday.
He joined Kent Police as chief constable in January 2004, but started his career with the
Metropolitan Police Service as a cadet in 1975.
He has served in busy and demanding uniformed and CID positions throughout London, including New Scotland Yard.
His achievements included, as a Detective Chief Inspector, devising a burglary control programme, which formed the basis for the Metropolitan Police anti-burglary operation, ‘Operation Bumblebee’.
Later, as a detective superintendent based in the Home Office, he worked as staff officer specialising in giving advice and carrying out inspections in crime and counter-terrorism.
In 2001 he won the G2 ‘Man of the Year Award’ in recognition of his personal achievements and contribution to policing in London. He was awarded the Queen’s Police Medal for distinguished service in July 2004. continues here
