HQ is largely an administrative centre - and is home to the force’s central switchboard, control room, crime management, traffic and training departments. Operationally, the county is divided into three areas - Eastern, Southern and Western - which are commanded by Chief Superintendents from area headquarters at Halesworth, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds.

Each area is divided into sectors, with boundaries matching those of local district or borough councils. There are a total of 14 sectors across the county, each commanded by an Inspector or Chief Inspector.
