If you seek a fast-paced law enforcement agency where you will be surrounded by officers of strong character, supportive City leadership and an involved community who believes in their officers, the Citrus Heights Police Department is the place for you.  We have created something exceptional at the CHPD; an agency where you will be challenged and trained well; a place where you are family; a premier department like no other. 

The Position

The CHPD provides an extensive variety of law enforcement services to the community.  We are actively seeking Police Officers who are committed to the vision of pioneering a new way of premier policing.  Citrus Heights has built an agency where patrol officers enjoy building relationships with the community and are supported by visionary leadership.  CHPD officers are enhanced by advanced technology and quality equipment and vehicles.  The major thoroughfares coursing through our city make traffic management a vital responsibility of all officers.  In addition to a fast-paced patrol division, the department has regular opportunities for special assignments, including Traffic, Investigations, School Resource, POP, K9, SWAT, Bike, Field Training, Defensive Tactics, Firearms, Special Investigations, Domestic Violence Response, Small UAV Pilots, Crisis Negotiators, Honor Guard, Bait, Juvenile Investigations and more!  We are committed to the wellness of our officers as demonstrated by our on-duty workout program and the CHPD Running, Softball, and Basketball teams.  Our officers also enjoy investing in our community’s youth through the Explorer Program and coaching a variety of sports and activities through the Citrus Heights Police Activities League.

Unique Shift Schedule

A career as a Police Officer assigned to patrol is demanding.  We recognize this and want our officers to truly experience work/life balance.  We have strategically incorporated these values into the benefits and work schedule programs outlined.  Officers are scheduled on 10 or 12.5 hour shifts, depending on their assignment, including a regular training day.  The crown jewel of our schedule is the Mini-Sabbatical which allows full time patrol officers to annually receive four consecutive weeks of paid time off; that’s in addition to vacation time.  That is a month off every year to spend with family!  For us, it’s family first.

Benefits

The City offers first class benefits, including: CalPERS retirement (employee pays full member contribution), 136 to 240 hours of accrued Annual Leave (to be used for vacation or sick time); 40 hours of Long Term Medical Leave; a substantial monthly City contribution toward health insurance and if qualifying alternative group health coverage is demonstrated, a $600/month cash-out may be added to salary or deferred compensation; and fully paid family dental, family vision, employee life and long-term disability insurance. 

The City does not participate in Social Security but does participate in Medicare and State Disability Insurance (SDI).  In addition, officers assigned to the Patrol Division receive 4 weeks of paid Mini-Sabbatical each year.  Officers have the ability to earn up to an additional 5% as a Detective or SRO – retaining the additional pay once the assignment is complete. The probationary period for this position is 18 months. 

Relocation Incentives:  The City offers a one-time $1,500 Relocation Assistance Award as a recruitment incentive for sworn personnel.  This Relocation Assistance award is available to full-time sworn Police Department employees who currently are living more than 60 miles away from Citrus Heights and moves within a 60 mile radius of the Citrus Heights Police Department.
