Job Description:
Prison Support Role at HMP Huntercombe
His Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service is looking for an Operational Support Grade (OSG). In this role, you will play a key part in supporting the day-to-day running of a busy prison. You will be part of a supportive team performing various tasks such as security and searches at the gate, managing deliveries, supervising visitors, and monitoring phone calls and CCTV. This is a varied and active job involving both desk duties and physical tasks such as lifting, carrying, and walking to accompany vehicles across the prison grounds.
Who You Are:
You don’t need any qualifications to do this job, but if you are a good communicator and can keep calm under pressure, this fast-paced role could be the start of a successful career for you. You will need good judgement and common sense, and above all, be a great team player. As an OSG, you will work a variety of shifts, including weekends and nights, to keep operations running smoothly.
What You Can Expect:
In this unique career, you’ll have the opportunity to protect the public and make an impact on lives by supporting the important work happening daily in our prisons. Unlike our prison officers, your contact with prisoners will be limited, though you may occasionally interact with them depending on the particular prison.
The OSG role will provide significant knowledge and experience of how a prison operates and can lead to opportunities for advancement into other prison jobs, including the OSG to Prison Officer conversion scheme.
Benefits:
You’ll receive great training and opportunities for progression and development. In addition to your base pay of £27,840 per year, you will receive:
* 25 days annual leave on appointment, increasing to 30 days after 10 years’ service (calculated on a pro-rata basis)
* 9 days bank, public, and privilege holidays
* Access to a paid Level 2 apprenticeship in customer service
* Access to the generous Civil Service pension scheme, season ticket loans, retail discounts, an Employee Assistance Programme, and a Cycle to Work scheme
If this sounds like you, apply now.
