Job description

Role overview

This position offers the chance to build a meaningful career centered on leadership, public service, and rehabilitation. As a Senior Prison Officer with the Singapore Prison Service, you will help protect society by ensuring offenders remain in safe and secure custody while also supporting their journey toward positive change and reintegration.

The role goes beyond day-to-day supervision. It combines operational responsibility, people leadership, and exposure to broader corrections work. You will be part of a mixed team of uniformed and civilian officers working in a fast-paced environment where sound judgment, resilience, and a commitment to helping others are essential.

Through this role, you will contribute to efforts that strengthen rehabilitation, support successful return to society after release, and advance initiatives that help shape the future of corrections in Singapore.

Key work areas

You will lead officers and help oversee the daily functioning of prison operations. The role requires close attention to procedures, compliance, and the maintenance of order and security within the institution.

In addition to custodial duties, you may gain exposure to policy-related work and projects that influence how corrections are delivered. The role also involves working with community partners and other stakeholders to support rehabilitation and reintegration efforts.

Requirements

The position calls for someone who can handle responsibility, lead others, and operate effectively in a highly structured environment. Applicants must hold a degree in any discipline.

Candidates must also be medically and physically fit. For male applicants, this includes PES B1 and above, along with at least a pass in the most recent IPPT year. Normal colour vision is required.

About the mission

The Singapore Prison Service describes this role as part of a larger purpose: not only keeping offenders securely detained, but also helping them rebuild their lives and re-enter society positively. The organisation views this work as a chance to make a real difference to communities and to the lives of those under its care.
