HMP Durham Prison Futures


We are recruiting not just for officers who are needed today, but for prison officers to fill vacancies at HMP Durham in years to come.

We need officers now to fill vacancies at other prisons and that is why we are recruiting to this special futures scheme that guarantees you a prison officer role at HMP Durham permanently but for the 23 months of your service you will be working at HMP Full Sutton.

It's a great opportunity.

You will benefit from a greater variety of experience, you will also get your accommodation costs paid for up to 23 months, receive a recruitment and retention payment paid at 12 months and 23 months and a paid monthly trip home.

You won't be on your own and you will be with other new officers who, like you will be returning to HMP Durham at the end of their 23 month deployment.


What's on offer?

  • You will benefit from higher takehome pay than is available via our standard prison officer recruitment process.
  • We will pay your accommodation costs (up to £589 per month).
  • You will be able to reclaim the cost of a monthly trip home.
You'll also benefit from comprehensive paid training, plus a range of other employee benefits and career progression opportunities.

How to applyThe online assessment centre**If you pass the online test, we will invite you to an online assessment centre.
