Andrea McDonnell

Governance

Andrea joined the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner in February 2025 as a Support Officer.

With a strong background in healthcare and education, she brings a wealth of experience the role. Previously she has worked with the NHS, gaining valuable insights into patient care and healthcare operations, and in various schools, where she developed a deep understanding of student needs and educational environments.

Outside of work she is passionate about outdoor activities, regularly walking along the beach or exploring the forest on weekends. She also enjoys quality time spent with her family, especially during holidays abroad.

As a local resident and employee of the OPCC, Andrea is invested in ensuring Dorset Police deliver against the Commissioner’s Police and Crime Plan and  is looking forward to making a contribution to that in her role as a Support Officer.
