inspektor


Explanation:
I suggest inspector which is common and ordinary for that position f.ex. in GB
Inspektor in Polish should be chief inspektor or smth. similar
There's no such a position as subinspector
Inspektor junior or vs. is maybe something used in a police liceum

disagree  maciejm: The problem is that in Polish police there are many more ranks than in British or American and you have to translate them somehow.There is no such thing as police liceum and in police academy they are called cadets
