Police Officer

Join Something Greater — Be the Difference in Raymore

The City of Raymore is growing, and our community has made a strong investment in its future by approving a safety sales tax to expand our Police Department. That means 8 new Police Officers will join our law enforcement family — and you could be one of them.

Your Voice Matters
– Be part of a department where every officer has the opportunity to actively shape the community.

Leaders in the Community – More than law enforcement, we are mentors, partners, and trusted allies.

Pride & Respect – High community satisfaction and support, a family-like culture, and a commitment to integrity, safe, close-knit community – A place where community policing isn’t a program, it’s a core value.
