Police Commander (Two Vacancies)
Description
Located in Southern California in the Coachella Valley, the City of Indio (approximate population 100,000) spans 30 square miles. The City is experiencing significant growth and development, downtown revitalization, and major investments in community infrastructure. The City has a diverse population and offers a variety of food, music, and cultural experiences. With nationally recognized public safety services, exceptional schools, great parks, and senior and teen centers, it is no wonder the City is also ranked as one of the best places to live for young families. The City’s temperate winter climate, high quality of life, arts and cultural offerings, unique restaurants and shops, diversity, and outstanding municipal services appeal to residents and visitors alike, making Indio an extraordinary place to work, live, relax, and play.
Under the administrative direction of the Chief of Police, the Police Commander administers and manages the operations, personnel, and activities of one or more divisions or bureaus within the Police Department, including Field Services, Investigative Services, Support Services, and community-oriented policing programs. The City of Indio is seeking two forward-thinking professionals to serve as its next Police Commanders. The ideal candidates will be collaborative law enforcement leaders with strong operational and internal affairs expertise. Unlike leaders who primarily delegate, the ideal candidates will lead by example and contribute directly to the work through active involvement alongside their teams. These individuals will value community partnerships, accountability, employee development, and teamwork while demonstrating strong communication skills and effective problem-solving abilities.
The annual salary for the Police Commander is up to $241,812; placement is dependent on qualifications and experience.
