rrCampus Safety Support Staff

rBennington College

rJob Type:

rLocation: Bennington, Vermont, United States

rWorking in partnership with the campus community, the College welcomes applications for Campus Safety Support Staff. Support Staff are responsible for providing essential, on-call support to the Campus Safety team, filling in as Campus Safety Officer, Dispatcher, or Van Driver based on departmental needs. This versatile role ensures continuity of operations, maintaining a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all members of the campus community. The position requires flexibility to adapt to different responsibilities, each requiring a unique set of skills to address safety, administrative, and transportation needs. The hourly rate of pay is \$22.00.

Bennington serves a diverse student population inclusive of members of ethnically/racially minoritized, international, LGBTQIA+, and disability communities as well as diverse gender identities, socioeconomic backgrounds, religions, and political beliefs. Our staff and faculty also reflect diverse and intersecting backgrounds and identities. All employees are expected to be respectful and responsive to these differences in the service of building community that promotes student and employee success and community cohesiveness. Each individual (faculty, staff and students) will be accountable for upholding these values. The College\'s approach to pluralism and inclusivity-both as fields of inquiry and practice-is to prioritize flexible thought, and to invite the examination of access, value, power, and privilege through its institutional policies and areas of study. We encourage applicants from diverse realms of interest, backgrounds, experience, and accomplishments to apply.
