Position Details

The North Aurora Police Department, an Equal Opportunity Employer, is seeking Illinois certified, experienced lateral transfer officers and applications are now available.

We currently have one opening confirmed in June 2023, with another possible.

Women and people of color are encouraged to apply.

This opportunity is for applicants who are already Illinois certified police officers.

Another entry level exam will be held later this spring.

The North Aurora Police Department has an authorized strength of 32 sworn officers, and are establishing a lateral eligibility list for our current and future openings.

The North Aurora Police Department provides policing services to over 18,000 residents within our 10 square mile community. The department is proactive, working aggressively and consistently to identify and resolve problems and other issues to improve the quality of life within our community. We are a community policing department, hold many public events which are intended to build relationships with the community, and we have great support from our residents.

Internally, we are a very family-friendly workplace. Our staffing includes a chief of police, 2 deputy chiefs, 5 sergeants, 21 patrol officers, 1 crime prevention officer, 2 investigators, and 3 full-time records specialists. Most officers have secondary assignments so you can develop additional skills. Our patrol officers are not "just a patrol officer;" they are also firearms, taser, & defensive tactics instructors. They are evidence techs, field training officers, SWAT team members, crisis intervention team members, and more!

See the linked flyer below for more secondary assignments that are available.
