Job Specifics

Duties Description The Office of Special Investigations (OSI) is seeking qualified candidates to serve as an Assistant Deputy Chief Investigator (ADCI) in the Criminal Investigations Division East (CID-E). CID is a multifaceted division that investigates a range of criminal activities associated with the Department, including, but not limited to, violent acts resulting in serious injury or death, threats of violence, gun and drug distribution and possession, staff misconduct, and criminal organizations engaged in extremist violence or terrorist activities. CID also provides investigative assistance, intelligence, and information to law enforcement agencies. Additionally, CID participates in several task forces (e.g., ATF, DEA, FBI JTTF, and Safe Streets, as well as various Crime Analysis Centers and GIVE initiatives). CID is also responsible for testing all potential drug contraband recovered inside correctional facilities and investigating contraband cell phone cases.
This ADCI position is responsible for the daily operations, investigations, and management of the division from the Wallkill/Fishkill areas south to New York City. The ADCI position is a fifth-level leadership and supervisory role (under the Deputy Commissioner/Chief, Assistant Commissioner/Assistant Chief, Director of Operations, and Deputy Chief Investigator for CID East). The ADCI will supervise senior investigators and investigators handling CID cases in the above-referenced geographic area. It is the responsibility of the ADCI to ensure that the investigations conducted by staff in their coverage area are thorough, timely, fair, and compliant with relevant OSI policies and state and federal laws.
This position may be based in the Wallkill, Fishkill, or LIC (Long Island City) offices. Office assignments are based on the needs of OSI and the Department.

Minimum Qualifications The required qualifications include at least six years of investigative experience, with at least two years of leadership, management, and supervisory experience. Additionally, candidates must have at least five years of federal task force experience with an active Secret security clearance. This position also requires the ADCI to obtain and maintain a federal Secret security clearance and to supervise narcotics or other criminal task force activities. Experience conducting investigations in a confinement setting is also required. Certain undergraduate or graduate degrees may be substituted for a portion of the investigative experience requirements. Strong leadership skills, the ability to adapt to a changing environment, and the ability to handle multiple priorities are required. This position requires a high degree of organizational and writing skills; the incumbent must also be available to respond immediately to incidents and remain in the area as needed. Statewide travel is required of all OSI supervisory staff.
OSI investigative staff must possess, at a minimum, knowledge of applicable laws; the highest standards of personal integrity, ethics, fairness, character, judgment, and attitude; and the respect for and ability to work with others inside and outside OSI. OSI investigative staff must have state-of-the-art technical skills to conduct thorough and objective investigations and to fulfill OSI’s mission. Finally, OSI is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion by ensuring equal justice and opportunity without discrimination against any person based on protected classes, including race, color, national origin, creed/religion, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions), disability (physical or mental), age (18 and older), citizenship status, predisposing genetic characteristics, marital status, familial status (being pregnant, caring for a child under 18, or seeking to adopt a child under 18), sexual orientation (including perceived sexual orientation), gender (including sexual harassment), gender identity, gender expression, military status, prior arrest/criminal record, prior convictions (unless certain requirements have been met), domestic violence victim status, and/or retaliation for complaining about possible discrimination. This commitment extends to all of OSI’s hiring and promotional practices.
The ADCI position in OSI is a Management/Confidential (M/C) position, requiring a BDA, a background check, and approval by the Division of the Budget, among other required approvals. The ability to qualify as a peace officer and carry a firearm is also required.

Some positions may require additional credentials or a background check to verify your identity.
