    Sharing borders with the Pacific Ocean, Pebble Beach, and the City of Monterey, Pacific Grove combines an unparalleled quality of life with an ambience of charm, grace, and beauty. Located on the very tip of the scenic, tree-shrouded Monterey Peninsula, Pacific Grove boasts a beautiful, fully accessible coastline. The community encompasses a total of less than three square miles, with more than 3.5 miles of beaches, rocky outcroppings, and shoreline parks. Primarily a residential community, Pacific Grove has a population of 15,698 and over 1,300 registered historic homes and other structures. The Pacific Grove Police Department is a service-oriented agency that provides full-service policing, 24/7, to the community. Unquestionably, the officers and support staff have mastered what so many agencies strive to achieve – the ability to be effective crime fighters and, at the same time, ambassadors for this idyllic community. Pride, dedication, and community spirit are very strong and both the business and residential communities have strong support for the Department. The City of Pacific Grove is seeking a personable and seasoned law enforcement professional with a strong leadership presence and excellent interpersonal skills to serve as its Police Chief. The ideal candidate will maintain the integrity, professionalism, values, and goals of the Pacific Grove Police Department by ensuring that all rules and regulations are followed, and that accountability and public trust is preserved.

     

    Qualified candidates will possess a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice, Public or Business Administration, or related field along with seven (7) years of extensive, progressively responsible supervisory and administrative experience, preferably in a municipal police department or other public agency, or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience. Possession of a POST Management or Executive Certificate, completion of the POST Command College Program, or FBI National Academy is highly desirable, as is a Masters' Degree in Public Administration, Administration of Justice, or a related field. The annual salary range for the Police Chief is $162,656.00 - $217,963.20 current salary under review to increase plus a 3% management incentive (3% x base salary); placement within this range is dependent on qualifications and experience.
