The University of Alabama Police Department (UAPD) is seeking qualified candidates to join its Communications Division as emergency dispatchers, offering an opportunity to serve as the critical first point of contact during emergencies on campus.
Emergency dispatchers answer both emergency and non-emergency calls, gather essential information, and coordinate responses from police officers, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel. Their work plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and well-being of the University of Alabama community.
The recruitment effort follows a significant achievement for UAPD’s Communications Division. Earlier this year, the division earned Agency Training Program Accreditation from APCO International, recognizing its commitment to excellence in public safety communications and dispatcher training.
The university says the position offers competitive benefits, comprehensive professional training, and opportunities for career advancement while allowing employees to make a meaningful impact through public service.
Individuals interested in becoming part of UAPD’s Communications Division can learn more about the position and submit an application through the university’s careers website.
