Experienced 911 Dispatchers — Part-Time Opportunities
Harris County | Openwork Staffing | Up to 32 hrs/week
Location: Southside Houston (On-Site)

Bring Your Experience Back to the Console

Openwork Staffing is seeking skilled, TCOLE-certified 911 Dispatchers to support Harris County public safety operations in a part-time capacity. This position is ideal for trained professionals who know how to manage emergency communications with precision and are ready to continue serving the community in a critical role.

We are looking for dispatchers who already understand the pace, the pressure, and the responsibility of the work. If you’ve been in the seat — and you’re ready to stay sharp — this is the role built for you.

What You’ll Handle:

  • Answer, evaluate, and process 911 and non-emergency calls.
  • Dispatch units and coordinate responses with law enforcement agencies.
  • Operate CAD technology for call tracking and field support.
  • Conduct warrant and identity queries via TCIC/NCIC and OpenFox.
  • Manage multiple tasks while maintaining accuracy and composure.

You’ll operate at the front line of communication — where clarity, split-second judgment, and calm matter most.

What You Must Bring:

This role is for experienced dispatch professionals only.

  • TCOLE Basic Telecommunicator Certification.
  • Minimum 2 years of law enforcement dispatch experience.
  • Current CPR certification.
  • High School Diploma or GED.

Preferred:

  • CAD, TCIC/NCIC & OpenFox familiarity
  • Bilingual English/Spanish ability
  • Proven efficiency in high-pressure situations

Compensation & Schedule:

  • Starting at $22/hr — higher pay offered based on experience, skill level, and certifications.
  • Up to 32 hours per week.
  • Part-time availability including weekends, holidays, and fill-in shifts.
  • Temporary assignment with potential for ongoing placement.
  • Work is on-site at Harris County’s communications facility in Southside Houston.

If You’ve Done This Work — You Understand the Impact

Every call matters. Every second matters. Every voice matters.
We’re looking for the professionals who already know that — and have lived it.

If you’re ready to continue serving with experience, confidence, and purpose, we want to speak with you. Apply today.
