Whitehorse, Canada Government of Yukon Full time
Job Summary and Requirements This is for 1 term position until March 31, 2025 (anticipatory perm). TA's will be considered for existing government of Yukon employees.

The Department of Justice is working to ensure Yukon remains a safe, secure, and healthy place to live and work. We build strong and healthy relationships with others to support good governance and to foster safe communities with opportunities for healing. The Department of Justice provides a supportive and dynamic work environment made up of teams of professionals who are committed to making a difference in the lives of Yukoners.

Reporting to the Director of Public Safety and Investigations, the Community Safety & Policing Coordinator is responsible for developing community safety initiatives to prevent and reduce crime; engage citizens and communities through territorial policing programming; and foster integrated approaches to respond to key public safety issues. This position develops partnerships and works closely with other YG Departments, the RCMP, NGOs and First Nation governments to implement and guide community safety and policing programs.

The principles that guide the Department of Justice (DOJ) include:

Reconciliation with Yukon First Nations: Together as Department of Justice (DOJ) representatives we commit to embracing the spirit of the Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada entitled Honouring the Truth, Reconciling the Future, by conducting ourselves in our day-to-day business in a manner that embodies the purpose of reconciliation with our First Nations members in the Yukon. We recognize the importance of employee education on First Nations history and the encouragement of innovative thinking by all DOJ personnel on our ability to effect meaningful change towards true reconciliation.

Working as a Team: As DOJ employees we value working together as a team within branches and within the department as a whole, while respecting our respective roles in the administration of justice, to work as one entity to meet our collective objective to serve the public. We are mindful of the impact of our actions on the people around us both in proximity and in the larger department and strive to ensure that we maintain the best interests of the department in our approach to our work.

Identify and Meet our Clients' Needs: DOJ personnel have a wide variety of responsibilities and an equally diverse clientele, internal and external to government, and we are committed to ensuring that they know we work for them and that we treat them with empathy, inclusion, integrity, respect and professionalism.

Initiative and Innovation: Management will encourage DOJ staff at all levels to think innovatively and to take initiative that will improve the work we do and services that we provide to allow for positive change and creativity in the workplace. Management will encourage DOJ personnel to reconsider our approach to the services we provide and adapt to the changing environment.
