There is no such thing as a 'typical' Prison Custody Officer. We encourage applications from individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds, who can demonstrate the integrity, resilience and strong communication skills needed to thrive in this role. No specific qualifications or relevant experience is required.

The philosophy of G4S prisons is to rehabilitate offenders and equip them to re-integrate into mainstream society on release.

You must be flexible and available to work any shift pattern. Which will include a mixture of mornings, afternoons, evenings, and night shifts over a 40-hour working week, including every other weekend. With the option for overtime and shift increases this opportunity has excellent earning potential

Starting salary
You will work 40 hours per week on a starting salary of £29,500 with the option to increase to 44 hours per week, the starting salary for this would be £32,450 per annum.
