The Queen Creek Police Department (QCPD) is currently hiring police officer recruits. QCPD is seeking recruits who align with the organization’s philosophy of community-based policing and serving with respect, compassion and trust. Applications will be accepted through Sunday, April 21.
New hires are tentatively expected to start the police academy beginning in September. Upon successful completion of the academy, recruits will attend post-academy training at the Queen Creek Police Department before completing a field training program.
“We are excited to bring additional police recruits onto our team,” said QCPD Chief Randy Brice. “It is important that we find the right people that are prepared to deliver first class service to our community and are aligned with our vision to connect, engage and succeed together. We are committed to identifying and hiring individuals who demonstrate a service mindset, embrace teamwork and are ready to contribute to the mission of ensuring Queen Creek remains a safe place to live, work and play.”

-
New and expanded specialty assignments.

Rapidly expanding public safety facility infrastructure.
