THUNDER BAY- OPP officers are dedicated to "Safe Communities, A Secure Ontario" and provide crime prevention services to communities across the province. In a challenging and rewarding role, frontline police make a difference by supporting victims and upholding the law.
The OPP hires hundreds of police officers per year for one of three recruit class intakes. No previous experience in law or security is required; however, most successful applicants have completed post-secondary education, a military background, or completed a trades apprenticeship.
The OPP is also actively hiring experienced police officers. This includes officers currently serving or having served within the past two years with another police agency in Canada.
The OPP is dedicated to ensuring open, accessible, equitable and respectful workplaces and is committed to reflecting the diverse communities it serves. We encourage applications from members of our diverse communities, including Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities, women, persons from racialized groups, 2SLGBTQ+ persons, those who can speak fluently in other languages and anyone committed to a rewarding career in public service. The OPP is an equal opportunity employer, and accommodations will be provided in all stages of our hiring processes as necessary.
Candidates are encouraged to visit opp.ca/careers to find out more information about this rewarding career, the minimum qualifications to apply, and instructions on how to apply.
