Why Us?

Lead with honesty. Serve with respect.

At the Metro Transit Police Department, community-focused policing is at the heart of our mission. Guided by the values of honesty, service, and respect, our officers serve eight counties and 85+ cities across a growing bus and rail system.

Every officer interaction is an opportunity to build trust and strengthen community partnerships. Our officers carry out this work daily on transit platforms, at stops and stations, on vehicles, and throughout the communities we serve.

We reflect the region we serve. Nearly half of our workforce is made up of women or people of color, and we’re growing representation through intentional recruitment, mentorship, and advancement.

We seek people who bring curiosity, compassion, and a strong commitment to public service. Whether you are starting your journey, transferring from another department, or studying law enforcement, you will find opportunities to grow, to lead, and to Be the Difference.
