We are pleased to announce the Annual Metropolitan Police Commissioner’s Dinner which is to be held at The Army and Navy Club in Pall Mall. This year, the Deputy Commissioner of the Police of the Metropolis, Matt Jukes QPM will be our guest speaker.

Deputy Commissioner Jukes joined policing in 1995 as a constable with South Yorkshire Police. He worked in a variety of other roles, working his way up to the position of Chief Superintendent, Borough Commander.

He joined South Wales Police in 2010 as an Assistant Chief Constable leading on Specialist Crime and served as Deputy Chief Constable before being appointed Chief Constable in January 2018. He was awarded the Queen’s Policing Medal in that year’s Honours.

In November 2020 he joined the Met as Assistant Commissioner, moving to the post of Head of UK Counter Terrorism Policing and the Met’s Assistant Commissioner for Specialist Operations (ACSO) in July 2021.

His 30-year career has been split between periods in specialist areas of policing, and others at the heart of local policing, delivering for communities and supporting frontline colleagues, including a focus on their wellbeing. He is a former Chair, and now Vice Chair, of Police Sport UK, and a Patron of the Police Roll of Honour Trust.

He became acting Deputy Commissioner in May 2025.

During the evening, the Deputy Commissioner will give a talk under the Chatham House Rule and there will be an opportunity to ask him questions.
