This is not a standard recruitment letter or drive. Lions Gate prides itself on the staff that we place in front of our clients. We are looking for mature, experienced, professional workers that have experience in talking to people and listening as well. Our clients have come to appreciate the difference and seek more of that precious resource.

So, this letter is addressed to all former Law Enforcement, Sheriffs, Corrections, and Military that are looking for work in an exciting and dynamic environment. Lions Gate has come to appreciate the valuable experience that you have built up over the years in your previous career and are prepared to provide you some exciting and rewarding opportunities. If you are currently unlicensed under the Security Services Ministry as either a licensed Security worker, or Guard, or a Private Investigator, we can assist you in obtaining the required licenses. For more information on that, simply ask the hiring screener during your interview. On the other hand, if you are currently licensed as either a Guard or a PI, we can put you to work right away for as many hours as you would like to work, circumstance depending.

The beauty of our employment is that you can select the days or hours, or frequency that you want to work. For example, if you retired after a lengthy career and have vacation plans, you can go, and we will be here when you get back. Through our virtual employee management system, you simply enter the dates and times that you are available for assignments.

Our wages, like us, are industry leading and are appropriately based on Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities coupled with your experience and tailored to client needs. For people with your experience wanting to be guards the pay rate would be $30-$35 an hour. For people with your experience as Private Investigators your pay rate would be $35-$45 an hour.

Again, this letter is intended for former Law Enforcement, Sheriffs, Corrections, or Military. You can also check us out at www.lgrmg.ca Others need not apply at this time.

You can submit your cover letter and resume directly to [email protected] and someone will be in touch with you right away.

From one veteran to another, I thank you for you service.

Respectfully submitted,

Doug Maynard, M.O.M.

The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) is an independent civilian-led agency with jurisdiction to investigate police-related incidents of death or serious harm to determine whether or not an officer may have committed an offence. The Police Act creates the IIO and defines its powers. The IIO reports to the Attorney General; however, investigations and decisions are operationally independent of the government. The IIO has jurisdiction over all provincial policing agencies, including municipal police agencies, the RCMP, the South Coast BC Transportation Authority Police Service, and the Stl’atl’imx Tribal Police Service. The IIO’s jurisdiction also extends to officers appointed as special provincial constables, municipal constables, and includes on- and off-duty officers. IIO Investigations have the potential to provide the evidentiary basis for a trial in criminal court. The legislation under which the IIO operates ensures the investigative approach is without bias, accountable and fair to citizens and to officers under investigation. The IIO works to build community confidence in police accountability.

The IIO Investigator, Forensics Support is a collaborative member of a diverse investigation team conducting complex high-profile investigations into critical incidents in BC where it appears a person may have died or suffered serious harm as a result of the actions or inactions of a police officer. The Investigator, Forensics Support co-ordinates, consults, advises and manages the Forensic response, evidence collection and exhibit management of IIO investigations. All IIO Investigators are required to complete the mandatory Investigator Certification program.

The BC Public Service is committed to creating a diverse workplace to represent the population we serve and to better meet the needs of our citizens. Consider joining our team and being part of an innovative, inclusive and rewarding workplace.
