The Lethbridge Police Service is currently accepting applications for a full-time permanent Watch Team Lead. We are looking for a trained, prepared, and results-oriented team member who demonstrates professionalism and is committed to providing exemplary public service in support of the community and the police service to fill the role of full-time Watch Team Lead with the Lethbridge Police Service.

 

The Watch Program is a volunteer-based initiative of Lethbridge Police Service with the objective of enhancing the community as a safe and friendly place for everyone to live, work, shop and enjoy, through social outreach, connection and intervention. Members of The Watch manage a range of issues and events that historically involved police intervention, but in reality, are not part of core police functions and most do not require police intervention. 

 

The Watch Team Leads conduct foot patrols with their team in the downtown area providing a multitude of services such as giving directions, providing first aid, tourist information and whatever other assistance they can that is required by whomever is in need.  The Watch acts as the eyes and ears of social and community services agencies and our emergency service providers.

 

Reporting to The Watch Manager, The Watch Team Lead is a unique opportunity for an individual with a passion and commitment for serving other people and playing a role in ensuring our community is a welcoming and safe place for everyone.

 

The Watch Team Lead will guide a team of volunteers to provide a highly visible presence in the downtown area.  They will work in partnership with stakeholders and other service providers, volunteers and other Team Leads in meeting the goals of The Watch and the police service.  They will be responsible for planning patrols in their assigned area, providing direction and guidance to volunteer team members, providing social outreach and support when required and completing written reports on activities and incidents in accordance with policy.
