Employment Opportunities
Occasionally, the Lake Orion Police Department has job openings available and seeks qualified applicants to fill these vacant jobs. The village advertises these job openings in the Lake Orion Review, on this web page, and in any other appropriate media depending on the nature of the job. Interested job seekers are encouraged to check these media often for available job opportunities with the village. A completed employment application is required and can be returned by stanfieldt [at] lakeorionpolice.org (E-mail).
