About this role

You will get a real sense of purpose out of being a prison officer. You're doing two important things for the community: you're keeping potentially dangerous people safe in a secure facility, and you're helping many offenders take the first steps to becoming more positive contributors to our shared lives.
You must be someone who truly believes you can help people change. As part of our case management program, you will be given a case load of prisoners and will guide these men or women to adopt positive behaviours, while also maintaining important family and community connections. This is when your ability to reserve your judgement and find common ground with anyone will be so valuable.

COVID-19 has altered the way people the world over live and work. However, prison officers are essential frontline workers, and while many new health and safety precautions have been instituted in our prisons, our officers continue to do their important work every day. It's not a job that can be done from home and it's not a job that can stop. That means that these are secure roles that you can build a life around.
