An extraordinary job. Done by someone like you.
As an Operational Support Grade, you will play a key part in supporting the day-to-day running of a busy prison. You will be part of a supportive team doing various tasks – from security and searches at the gate, to managing deliveries, supervising visitors, and monitoring phone calls and CCTV. It’s a varied and active job involving some desk duties along with physical tasks such as lifting, carrying, and walking to accompany vehicles across the prison grounds.
Someone like you
No formal qualifications are needed for this role, but if you are a good communicator and can stay calm under pressure, this fast-paced role could be the start of a successful career. You will need good judgment, common sense, and be a great team player to help keep the prison running smoothly and safely.
As an OSG, you will work a variety of shifts, including weekends and nights, to ensure continuous operations.
An extraordinary job
This career offers the opportunity to protect the public and make a difference by supporting daily operations in our prisons. Your contact with prisoners will be limited, although some interaction may occur depending on the prison.
The OSG role provides valuable knowledge and experience of prison operations and can lead to other prison roles, including opportunities to apply for the OSG to Prison Officer conversion scheme.
