Bureau Chief Jobs in New Mexico

A Bureau Chief in the law enforcement industry oversees the operations of a specific department or bureau within a law enforcement agency. They are responsible for the administration, planning, and direction of their department's activities. They coordinate and manage investigations, review and analyze crime data, develop policies and procedures, and ensure their department's compliance with laws and regulations. They may also engage in public relations, acting as a spokesperson for their department. A Bureau Chief must maintain effective relationships with other law enforcement agencies, government organizations, and the community.
