Role overview

What you will do
You will support a range of day-to-day security and operational activities, including gate checks, managing deliveries, supervising visitors, and monitoring phone calls and CCTV. The work is fast-moving and requires a calm, practical approach. Although prisoner contact is limited compared with prison officers, some interaction may happen depending on the prison.

Shift pattern and working style
The role involves a range of shifts, including weekends and night shifts, to support 24/7 prison operations.
Training and career development

Pay and benefits
The salary for this role is £30,491. Alongside base pay, the package includes 25 days of annual leave on appointment, rising to 30 days after 10 years of service, calculated on a pro-rata basis, plus 9 days of bank, public and privilege holidays.
