  • Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
  • Strong organizational and report-writing skills.
  • Commitment to professionalism, integrity, and service.

Replacement Holidays are provided to recognize coverage requirements during university-observed holidays and breaks, helping ensure officers receive equitable paid time off comparable to that of other university employees.

Why Maryville?

At Maryville University, our people matter most. We believe in fostering a culture where employees are empowered to make a meaningful impact every day. As a Public Safety Officer, you'll play an essential role in protecting our community while supporting student success and well-being.
