About the role

Union Parish Detention Center is seeking a dynamic SECURITY LIEUTENANT to lead the on-site security team and maintain a safe, orderly environment within the facility. You will oversee daily activities, coordinate incident responses, and ensure strict adherence to safety protocols and UPDC policies. The role emphasizes leadership, loss prevention, and conflict management, with duties including supervising rounds every 30 minutes, handling offender movements, and conducting searches upon re-entry

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
