'No remorse'
Judge James Goss QC described him as manipulative, controlling and domineering.
"Your offending has had an enormous impact on the wellbeing, confidence and lives of those against whom you offended, destroying their lives," he said.
Scott's offences came to light after he was dismissed when a member of the public complained about him touching her sexually while on duty.
Although he was not prosecuted for that offence, the publicity led other women to come forward.
Mr McPhillips said Scott's crimes had a "significant detrimental impact" on his victims.
"Yet he has never exhibited any remorse and he does not appear to understand the horrific nature of his crimes," he said.
In addition to the seven rapes, Scott admitted two common assaults, one sexual assault and two counts of inciting a child to engage in sexual touching.
