The modern day Prison Ofﬁcer has an important role to play in ensuring prisoners are treated decently and humanely, encouraging them to live useful, law-abiding lives once released from custody.

Apart from custodial duties, you will be expected to build close relationships with those people serving custodial sentences and obviously this takes a great deal of skill, education and awareness. This type of challenge is not for everyone but if you believe you have the right qualities, attributes and a determination to succeed, then you can become a Prison Ofﬁcer.

Your role as a competent and effective Prison Ofﬁcer stretches far further than ensuring prisoners abide to prison rules.
You will be involved in their education, training and coaching, which in turn will help them to lead better lives both inside and outside of prison. Naturally there comes a great deal of reward with this role and many Prison Ofﬁcers enjoy the beneﬁts of a good salary, working conditions and, above all, job satisfaction.
Yes, the role of a prison ofﬁcer is demanding and challenging but being part of a team that transforms people’s lives is a great prospect for many Prison Service employees.
Many people apply to join the Prison Service every year and by researching the role, the selection process and also preparing yourself fully, you will drastically improve your chances of becoming a Prison Ofﬁcer.
