  1. Deputy Division Director – Community Corrections Division

https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/kingcounty/jobs/5316917/deputy-division-director-community-corrections-division

The King County Department of Adult & Juvenile Detention (DAJD) is seeking an exceptional leader and strategist to serve as the Deputy Division Director of the Community Corrections Division (CCD). This senior leadership role serves as a co-leader of the CCD Division, partnering with the Division Director to oversee budget and operations, strengthen partnerships, support workforce excellence, establish and monitor performance metrics, advance strategic priorities, and drive continuous quality improvements.

This position requires strong knowledge of best practices in the field, along with the ability to navigate and operate effectively across a complex governmental landscape. Success in this role depends on systems fluency—working seamlessly with the court system, internal partners, municipalities, and community-based organizations—while fostering cross-system collaboration to achieve shared outcomes.

The ideal candidate is a people-centered leader who can guide their team through change with clarity and consistency, holding individuals accountable while modeling expected behaviors. They bring deep experience aligning work across multiple systems, leveraging partnerships, and applying evidence-based practices to improve outcomes. A demonstrated ability to collaborate with service providers and lead a diverse workforce is essential, as is the capacity to bridge gaps between systems and drive coordinated, effective responses.

ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

The Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention (DAJD) is an Executive branch department with five divisions and approximately 940 budgeted employees supporting two adult detention facilities, a juvenile detention facility, various community supervision programs, and administrative services. The two adult secure detention divisions are the Seattle Division, which operates the King County Correctional Facility (KCCF), and the Kent Division, which operates secure detention at the Maleng Regional Justice Center (MRJC). The Juvenile Division operates secure detention at the Clark Children and Family Justice Center (CCFJC) in Seattle. An average daily population, as of March 2026, the adult jails combined housed more than 1325 adult residents, the CCFJC housed more than 33 juvenile residents and supervised 40 juvenile clients in the community, and the Community Corrections Division had approximately 675 individuals supervised under electronic home monitoring and day reporting programs.

DAJD MISSION: We provide in-custody and community-based services that are data informed, advance safety, lead system change, and promote equitable outcomes for the people we serve.

DAJD VISION: We lead the Nation in providing exemplary services that transform lives.

DAJD PRIORITIES

  • Ensure safety and security of staff and residents.
  • Recruit, develop, support, and retain staff.
  • Promote opportunities to humanize the people in our facilities and programs.
  • Strengthen community connections.
  • Manage operational risks.

ABOUT THE DIVISION

The Community Corrections Division (CCD) is currently supported by 55 budgeted positions, and a biennial budget of roughly $24 million.  It has been part of DAJD since 2003. It is the mission and vision of the CCD to “create an environment in which individuals receive the appropriate level of care to address criminogenic and psychosocial needs, by providing court ordered alternatives to secure detention that allow an individual to become court compliant, self-reliant, and a thriving member of the community.” CCD provides the courts and the participant with pre-trial and sentenced alternatives to secure confinement. The alternatives and services offered strive to use evidence-based practices that promote pro-social behaviors and lifestyles.

CCD works collaboratively with various community partners to provide an array of services and increase the use of alternatives. These services include monitoring and support services for persons supervised on electronic home detention, as well as day reporting services for those assigned to participate in more interactive programs supported by community service providers. The alternative programs and services are available to persons charged with an offense who are incarcerated or facing incarceration. To be eligible, a person must be ordered to join the program by the court and be statutorily eligible for the program. Caseworkers in the division monitor an average of more than 600 individuals across the four programs. Within CCD, the Intake Services Unit works with the District and Superior Court in King County, completing more than 800 interviews each month with residents to support the Courts in pretrial release decisions. The division also delivers Resident Programs, which includes administration of computer tablets in facilities as well as a range of in-person programming, educational initiatives, volunteer and library services.

The goals of Community Corrections Division alternatives are to:

  • Improve the quality of life for each program participant.
  • Decrease the individual’s involvement in the criminal justice system.
  • Decrease rates of failure to appear at subsequent court hearings.
  • Support and help facilitate successful change in participant’s behavior.
  • Increase the participant’s sense of accountability.
  • Reduce the participant’s rate of re-offense.
  • Address community safety concerns.
  • Reduce the jail population by providing alternatives to secure detention.
  • Screen and assess individuals in the jail and provide court partners with information to guide decisions regarding custody status.
  • Develop and encourage participation in jail-based programs and services to address criminogenic risk factors while preparing individuals for reentry into their community.

The new Deputy Division Director will support the mission of the Community Corrections division with innovation, and pragmaticism, and encourage a forward-thinking culture where team members collaboratively and proactively contribute ideas and efforts toward achieving goals. This position provides leadership across multiple operational and strategic domains including workforce performance management, performance metrics, partnerships, and service delivery infrastructure with a deep commitment to advancing equity, racial justice, and community safety.
