Tasmania Police has an operational strength of around 1100 officers serving a population nearing half a million people within four geographical districts (southern, northern, eastern and western). Each District is managed by a Commander who also has responsibility for budgetary control of the resources that have been allocated to the District.

Answering to the Commanders are Inspectors, who in turn have Sergeants supervising the Constables that make up the majority of police personnel.

State service personnel of around 350, provide supporting services.

Executive direction and policy decisions are made at Police Headquarters in Hobart within a structure that includes the Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, two Assistant Commissioners and the Director of Corporate Services. The Commissioner of Police is the head of Tasmania Police and reports directly to the responsible Minister who is an elected representative of the people of Tasmania.
