Mr Boutcher was previously appointed as the interim head of the service pending the outcome of interviews.
Former Bedfordshire chief constable Jon Boutcher has said he is “very honoured” to be selected to lead the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
In normal circumstances, when a devolved government is in place in Northern Ireland, the board’s selection would be sent to Stormont’s justice minister for final approval. The new PSNI chief faces a challenging in-tray, including a budget crisis, dealing with the fall out following a significant data breach in which the personal details of all officers and staff were mistakenly published online, and a critical High Court ruling that said two junior officers had been unlawfully disciplined for their actions at a Troubles commemoration event.
Speaking about the appointment, Board chair Deirdre Toner said: “I am pleased to confirm that Jon Boutcher is the successful candidate from this appointment competition. The Policing Board said the position carries extensive responsibilities and the appointment had a “rigorous selection process”.
