It's about time we introduced Brady!👮‍♂️

He joined the EPS over ten years ago, and has spent time in West Patrol, Beats, the Police Liaison Team, TRACS, and now the Recruiting Unit.

While Recruiting is (so far) his favourite assignment, beats is a close second. Building relationships, solving problems, and getting to know the community on 124 Street made every day a little different.

Before policing, his background in social work came in handy when responding to a variety of calls and community assistance across Edmonton.

Brady offers this advice for applicants: "Be yourself, be professional, and remember every interaction counts. Show up prepared, take advantage of workshops, Run with Recruiters events, and be open to feedback. We're here to chat with you if you have questions! Policing is an incredible career that will challenge you, teach you, and help you discover strengths you didn't know you had".

When he's off duty, you'll find him spending time with his growing family, or trying to balance a long list of hobbies that includes drumming, snowboarding, football, cooking, camping, and travel.

Say hello to Brady at an upcoming Run with Recruiters event!

Members of the Edmonton Police Service were honoured to take part in the celebrations this week recognizing the 150th anniversary of the signing of Treaty 6.

This milestone holds immense local significance. Originally a traditional Indigenous gathering place known as Amiskwaciwâskahikan (Beaver Hills House), Edmonton’s modern identity remains inextricably linked to the sacred relationship established in 1876.

Chief Driechel and other members of the EPS attended the opening ceremony at City Hall and the 150 Year Commemoration Pow Wow at Enoch Cree Nation. The pow wow was a resounding celebration of enduring Indigenous sovereignty, cultural resilience, and ancestral strength.
