The RCMP hires public service employees in a wide variety of disciplines to support our police officers at detachments and offices.

For every successful police operation, there is a team of public service employees providing administrative support in order to help police officers and investigators to accomplish their mandate. These employees play a critical role in delivering services to our communities and supporting our local, provincial and national policing priorities. By hiring the best candidates to staff our public service positions, we are helping police officers accomplish their law and order enforcement mandate. If you wish to provide administrative support to the RCMP, please submit your application
The work is being performed in a police detachment environment. This results in occasional exposure to intoxicated mentally unstable, hostile and potentially violent individuals to victims of crime or relatives of accident victims who may be distraught. The work is performed in an open office environment. It involves tight deadlines, time pressures, frequent interruptions, conflicting priorities and multiple demands from staff, callers and visitors.
Intent of the process
The intent is to have an inventory of candidates (partially or fully assessed) to draw from when vacancies arise for current and future needs of various tenures (term, indeterminate, acting, deployment) in Thompson, Manitoba. Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis as long as the advertisement is active.
A qualified pool of candidates may be established and may be used to staff this position or similar positions or for future term, acting, assignment, secondment, deployment, or indeterminate opportunities.
Should a Civilian Member (CM) be found qualified and selected for appointment, the appointment will not result in a change of status to the Public Service (PS) category for the CM.
