ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

BART Police Department is a progressive agency and has been on the forefront - and in some cases the model approach to training in the areas of fair and impartial policing, bias-based policing, crisis intervention, cultural competence training, and de-escalation training. The mission of the BART Police Department is to ensure a safe environment within our transit system, reduce crime through a highly visible police presence, and proactive enforcement of the law, and to promote public confidence by working in partnership with our stakeholders and the communities we serve.

JOB SUMMARY

The District is currently seeking a Deputy Police Chief who will be responsible for managing and administering the activities of a bureau within the Police Department as well as assisting the Chief of Police with overall operation of the Department.

The BART Police Department, with over 200 sworn personnel and over 200 professional staff members, is a significant law enforcement presence in the Bay Area; the Deputy Chief role will provide abundant opportunity to develop skills in a broad range of police management activities in a dense and diverse urban environment.

The BART Board and Executive Management Team are fully committed to supporting and improving the Police Department, and the Chief is equally committed to fostering effective mentoring and developmental opportunities at all levels.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate outstanding leadership capabilities, strong interpersonal skills and the confidence to initiate and follow through on important initiatives in the Department. The Individual will also demonstrate experience and creativity around crime reduction strategies, community-oriented policing, problem solving and working in a culturally diverse urban environment.
