Our Department is excited to offer the role of the Deputy Director to one who has established themselves through proven executive management experience and has a high degree of familiarity with the current trends and alternatives to incarceration and rehabilitation. With the focus on providing transformative, evidence-based, and client-centered care, the Deputy Director owns a critical role in providing executive-level oversight and direction in the provision of services through their subordinate bureaus.

We look forward to onboarding the candidate who believes in the “Los Angeles model,” which is a progressive model of caring and rehabilitative restorative justice. As a critical component to success, the ideal candidate and will serve not only as an executive manager over subordinate managers and bureau operations, but as a leader of team members who can be inspired to collectively propel forward the Department’s mission and strategic plan rooted in public service.

We are looking for a confident, well-versed, and compassionate leader with experience in overseeing multiple major/complex operations, preferably in the areas of juvenile detention services, supervision and investigative services for the adult and youth populations, as well as community-based diversion and re-entry programs. Other ideal factors that would heighten an individual’s candidacy are their demonstrated abilities to gather and address organizational data, identify accountability and quality control issues, improve implicit/systemic bias amongst the workforce, as well as elevate access and quality of professional development for sworn and non-sworn staff.
