Job description

Police Officer - Sycuan Tribal Police Department Casino, 5485 Casino Way, El Cajon, California, United States of America Req #14790 Thursday, March 27, 2025

The ancestors of the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation existed many centuries ago as a community of people…a Tribe living together, farming, hunting and fishing to survive.

Much has changed since that time. Today the Sycuan Tribe governs its Reservation, owns and operates a Casino and a Golf Resort, and owns a number of other business ventures in the San Diego Region.

One attribute that remains unchanged, however, is Sycuan's sense of community. Sycuan is more than just a business. Sycuan is a community of people working together toward a common goal. Whether you work in our state-of-the-art Casino, our beautiful Resort, or become a staff member in our Tribal Government division, you will be part of the Sycuan family.

Are you looking for a rewarding career where you can make a difference in your community? Sycuan Tribal Police Department is seeking a dedicated and passionate individual to join our team as a Police Officer.
