BY ROCCO PARASCANDOLA , GREG B. SMITH , CORKY SIEMASZKO NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

He will be policing the police.

New York City on Friday appointed out-of-towner Philip Eure as its first inspector general for the NYPD.

Eure, whose job will be to oversee the nation’s biggest police force, says he’s up for the challenge.

“Leading the first inspector general office of the NYPD is an incredible opportunity to work with the premier police department [that] is globally recognized in one of the greatest cities in the world,” said Eure, 52, who starts May 27.
