One Agency, One Mission, Public Safety
Deputies with at least 2 years of experience as a Jail Deputy or a Corrections Deputy apply here. The Larimer County Sheriff's Office has opportunities for experiences in a different type of jail setting where everyone works together for staff and inmates' safety.
This is a lateral selection process, and if hired will be placed at the top of the seniority list based on years of service. Jail Deputies are able to enjoy a life-work balance with schedules that allow for three or more consecutive days off. Retirement benefits include 401a, 457 Plan, and Social Security.
We encourage cultural diversity and inclusion throughout Larimer County which benefits our community and enables us to serve everyone throughout the county.
If you are past military and are GI Bill eligible, if hired you may qualify to be reimbursed through your GI Bill during the training period for this job.
Our jail is not your typical jail. It is clean, professional and the layout is an open concept (see LCSO Jail Deputy video below). Working in this setting, our deputies are trained to uphold a high standard on how they interact with the inmates and each other. While on your shift, you will be supported by multiple levels of staff.
Larimer County is currently working on expanding the jail over the next five years. The plans for the expansion and improvements will allow employees to enjoy natural light, an enjoyable and relaxing break area, state-of-the-art equipment, and all the tools necessary to do their jobs safely. Jail Deputies have access to mentors, endless training, special assignments, promotional opportunities, and a wonderful group of team members to help support you in this environment.
