The posting

Are you a progressive, visible, servant-leader with a record of building trust across diverse communities? Are you ready to lead a respected police department in the fastest-growing large city in the Rio Grande Valley? If so, the City of Edinburg invites you to apply to become its next Chief of Police. Reporting to City Management, the Chief of Police serves as the executive leader of the Edinburg Police Department, a team of 195 sworn officers and 72 professional staff serving a community of more than 110,000 residents. We’re seeking a leader who is:

• A person of uncompromised integrity who leads by example

• An approachable communicator committed to community-oriented policing

• A strategic planner ready to scale the department alongside a growing city

The City of Edinburg seeks a candidate who brings a participatory, team-oriented leadership style and a thorough understanding of community and problem-oriented policing. The next Chief will invest in their people through mentorship, wellness, and fair promotional practices, and will build consensus with labor representatives, City departments, and regional law enforcement partners. Equally important is a principled, non-partisan approach. The ideal candidate will work effectively with elected officials and City Management, navigate a dynamic environment with diplomacy and objectivity, and plan strategically to grow the department alongside one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas.

The salary range for this position is $135,000 – $185,000, depending on qualifications.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
