Davis Stuart is seeking a dependable, high-integrity professional to serve as our Nocturnal Safety Officer. In this vital role, you function as the primary protective shield of our Lewisburg campus while our residents sleep.
This is a premium, specialized safety position focused on observation and operational continuity. This is not a traditional hands-on Treatment Associate role. Your primary objective is maintaining total perimeter integrity through independent, vehicle-based mobile surveillance, serving as a vigilant, calming safety resource to support our dedicated indoor cottage staff if an exceptional need arises.
Strategic Demographics: Who Excels in This Specialized Role?
- Mid-Career Professionals & Changers: Individuals seeking a low-stress, highly independent professional environment with the absolute stability of a comprehensive health, dental, vision, and life insurance package.
- Advanced & Adult Students: Perfect for those balancing heavy academic workloads. Because this position centers on vigilant monitoring and surveillance, when the campus is completely secure and locked down, utilizing your stationary vehicle downtime for reading, studying, and course preparation is fully supported.
- Natural Night-Shift Specialists: Individuals whose natural circadian rhythms thrive during overnight hours, allowing them to protect their community while keeping their daylight hours 100% free for family, personal business, or hobbies.
- Veterans & Active Retirees: Civically-minded individuals looking to apply their structured discipline, life experience, and calm authority to a respected campus environment without rigorous wear-and-tear on the body.
Core Responsibilities:
- Mobile Perimeter Surveillance: Execute highly vigilant, scheduled safety patrols of all campus grounds and facility perimeters utilizing an agency-provided patrol vehicle.
- Operational Continuity: Maintain an active, reassuring, and professional safety presence to ensure a secure environment for residential youth and overnight facility staff.
- Strategic Team Support: Serve as a reliable, clear-headed backup resource for cottage personnel during rare, high-stress incidents or routine staff relief coverage.
- Incident Documentation: Manage precise overnight security logs, facility checklists, and compliance reporting with accuracy and objective detail.
Candidate Profile & Core Qualifications:
- A mature, controlled demeanor with sharp situational awareness and excellent logic-over-emotion crisis resolution skills.
- High school diploma or GED equivalent.
- Valid driver’s license (Mandatory for patrol vehicle operations).
- Ability to successfully clear standard fingerprinting and background vetting through the WV CARES program (candidates with minor, historic non-violent offenses eligible for a variance are welcome to apply).
- The Commute Advantage:
Our condensed 4-day schedule reduces your weekly commute and travel expenses by half. We proudly welcome campus safety applicants from across the West Virginia and Virginia borders:
- Under 20 minutes: Ronceverte, Fairlea, White Sulphur Springs, Caldwell, Alderson.
- 20 to 45 minutes: Beckley outskirts (Beaver), Shady Spring, Union, Rainelle, Rupert, Covington (VA), and Clifton Forge (VA).
