Protect the Public and Make a Positive Impact
This is an extraordinary job where you can make a real difference in people's lives. As a prison officer, you will work with offenders to help them turn their lives around and become law-abiding citizens.
The role requires you to be a peacekeeper, counsellor, and teacher all at once. You will work directly with prisoners in a unique environment, helping to protect the public and make a positive impact.
To succeed in this role, you will need to have empathy, self-confidence, and great communication skills. You will also need to be able to work well under pressure and as part of a team.
As a prison officer, you will have the opportunity to specialise in different areas and progress your career. You will receive great training and support, including childcare vouchers, season ticket loans, retail discounts, Employee Assistance Programme, and Cycle to Work scheme.
You will be given the chance to carry out various roles each day, making this a fast-paced and dynamic job. No two days or situations are ever the same, and you will find a range of opportunities to grow and develop into.
Whether you're a parent, a teacher, or have worked in retail or the armed forces, you'll have developed the skills we expect. There's no such thing as a typical prison officer, and our people come from different walks of life just like the offenders they work with.
We require you to work various shifts and weekends, but this job offers a good salary, 25 days' holiday allowance each year, and a sense of achievement you won't find anywhere else.
