Five Recently Posted Remote Jobs for Law Enforcement Professionals
Sep 13, 2026
Remote work has changed significantly since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many organizations that once embraced fully remote teams have shifted employees back into offices or adopted hybrid schedules. As a result, legitimate remote opportunities have become considerably less common, particularly in investigations, security, compliance, and risk management.
At the same time, demand from job seekers has not slowed down. The limited number of remote positions available often receive a disproportionate share of all applications. Within days, employers can receive hundreds or even thousands of applicants from across the country.
That level of competition means simply meeting the qualifications is not enough. You need a fantastic resume that clearly translates your law enforcement experience, a targeted cover letter that explains why you are the right fit, and a professional LinkedIn profile that reinforces your value when recruiters look you up.
This is exactly what I help officers build through my Private Sector Ops Plans. Each Ops Plan includes a professionally written resume, customized cover letter, optimized LinkedIn profile, two strategy calls, lifetime access to Heroes Academy and the Recruiting Heroes Community, and resume tailoring for up to three targeted positions. If you want to compete for highly sought-after remote roles like these, your application materials need to position you as a private-sector professional, not simply a law enforcement officer looking for something different.
I have now helped over 800 law enforcement officers looking to make the transition to the private sector. I've also worked as a Recruiting Director for a multi-million dollar corporation in the private sector. I know what it's like being in the uniform, responding to calls for service, investigating crimes, and all the experiences that come along with being in law enforcement. But I also know what recruiters and hiring managers in the private sector are looking for. This gives me the opportunity (and absolute honor!) to help law enforcement officers land exciting jobs like the five below. If you'd like to work with me, I hope you sign up for my Ops Plan.

5. Senior Asset Protection Investigator | CHEP
Location: Home-based in Florida with field responsibilities Posted: Approximately two days ago
CHEP is seeking a Senior Asset Protection Investigator to investigate theft, fraud, misuse, and the unauthorized movement of company assets.

This role is a particularly strong match for detectives, organized-retail-crime investigators, property-crimes investigators, intelligence officers, and law enforcement professionals experienced in surveillance, interviewing, case development, evidence management, and external-agency coordination.
