Job Details

Surrey Police Service (SPS) is Surrey’s new municipal police agency. On November 29, 2024, SPS became the police of jurisdiction, and assumed responsibility and command for policing and law enforcement in Surrey. SPS is working to redefine policing with innovative new approaches and community-based solutions. It’s an exciting time as SPS continues to expand our team with talented people who want to help shape the future of policing in Surrey. To date we have hired over 615 police officers and 500 civilian support staff. As we continue to hire exceptional individuals, SPS will grow to be one of the largest independent police services in Canada. Since day one, SPS has been intentional about building a culture that is inclusive, respectful and supportive, with a strong focus on employee wellness and career development.

Position Overview

Reporting to the Sergeant, Missing Persons Team (MPT), the Detective Constable assigned to the Missing Persons Team is responsible for conducting investigations into medium to high-risk missing person cases, including those that are historical and complex in nature. This role involves assessing risk, coordinating with frontline officers, and managing investigative strategies aligned with Major Case Management principles.

The Detective Constable works collaboratively with community partners, government agencies, and other law enforcement bodies to locate missing individuals and resolve cases with sensitivity and thoroughness. This position requires expertise in applying trauma-informed investigative approaches, ensuring adherence to legal standards, and preparing comprehensive investigative reports to support case resolution and judicial processes.

Act as a central liaison for the Coroner Service and when necessary, assume the role of primary point of contact for families or next of kin for sudden death or UHR investigations that become prolonged or require additional resources.

Actively contributes to team effectiveness by sharing insights, maintaining open communication, and supporting collective decision-making and problem-solving.
