This is a great opportunity to utilize investigative skills and seek justice to protect the elderly and disabled in Missouri. The State of Missouri offers great benefits, a flexible work schedule, and 13 paid state and federal holidays.
The salary indicated represents a base pay rate. If the individual selected or the position is eligible for a pay differential (e.g., shift, security, or years of service), it will be added to the total compensation in your paycheck. A pay differential does not raise your base pay.

Provide testimony in court and/or administrative proceedings.
Maintain a positive working relationship with law enforcement, prosecutors, Home and Community Based Service providers, other state agencies, and community entities.

Hours of this position will be Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; overtime hours may be necessary.
Minimum Qualifications
A bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university with a minimum of 15 earned credit hours in one or a combination of the following: Criminal Justice, Law Enforcement, Criminology, Business Administration, social sciences, environmental sciences, or a closely related field (substitutions may apply).

Missouri P.O.S.T. certification preferred.
Lack of post‑secondary education will not be used as the sole basis for denying consideration to any applicant.
The State of Missouri offers an excellent benefits package that includes a defined pension plan, generous amounts of leave and holiday time, and eligibility for health insurance coverage.
