We are actively hiring former TPS officers

Have you previously served as a Toronto Police Service (TPS) officer and are interested in returning? Uniform Recruitment Team wants to hear from you!

 

Why Return?

Our TPS officers have a passion for serving a big city. Toronto, which is more culturally diverse and vibrant than ever, offers many opportunities to be involved in meaningful work that contributes to uplifting our diverse set of communities. Many returning officers share in the desire to be a role model within their community, and want to make a difference on a larger scale, while gaining access to a variety of roles and professional development opportunities along the way.

It’s possible to return to TPS at your former rank. On a case-by-case basis, the Chief of Police can authorize that a returning member is re-appointed to the rank assigned at the time of their resignation.
