Prison Officer Job Description
Protecting the public and making a positive impact on people's lives is at the core of this role.
You will work in a challenging environment, helping individuals who may be at their lowest point. Your key responsibility will be to build constructive relationships with offenders and support your colleagues in a team-based setting.
This varied role requires adaptability as you may take on different responsibilities within any one day. You could be involved in conflict resolution, education or providing guidance and support to prisoners.
As part of our organisation, you will receive comprehensive training and opportunities for progression and development. This includes specialising in various areas. Additionally, you will benefit from a competitive salary and perks such as 25 days' holiday allowance each year, childcare vouchers, season ticket loans, retail discounts and an Employee Assistance Programme.
The rewards are not solely financial - you will experience a sense of achievement when you've helped someone get back on track.
