Clear Career Professionals is preparing to launch the recruitment for the next Chief of Police for the City of Balch Springs, Texas.

Located in southeast Dallas County just minutes from downtown Dallas, Balch Springs is a growing and diverse community of more than 28,500 residents with direct access to Interstate 20, Interstate 635, and U.S. Highway 175.

The next Chief of Police will lead a department with 61 funded positions, including administrative staff, and will have an opportunity to shape the department’s continued growth while strengthening its focus on professionalism, accountability, employee development, community engagement, and public safety.

Balch Springs is seeking an experienced law enforcement leader who can build strong relationships inside the organization and throughout the community while preparing the department for the future.

The Clear Way

Clear Career Professionals believes executive recruitment should work well for both the organization and the people considering the opportunity.

That starts with telling the real story of the community and position so candidates can decide whether the opportunity is genuinely right for them. Throughout the process, Clear emphasizes candidate communication, including weekly phone call updates for candidates moving through the recruitment so they are not left wondering where things stand.

This recruitment will also feature PositionCast™, Clear's video and audio recruitment platform. PositionCast™ takes candidates beyond a traditional job posting by giving them an opportunity to hear directly about the community, the organization, and what leaders are looking for in the next Chief of Police. All this is available on your favorite podcast platform or YouTube.

Together, those pieces are part of the Clear approach: reach strong candidates, give them meaningful information, communicate with them throughout the process, and create a recruitment experience that reflects well on the community.

Recruitment Launching Soon

The complete recruitment brochure, position requirements, compensation and benefits information, and application instructions will be released soon. Follow Clear Career Professionals on LinkedIn so you don’t miss anything!
