**Job summary**:

- Please refer to Job Description**Job description**:
Probation services officers can help make a real difference to peoples’ lives. It’s not always easy to help someone turn their life around, but it can be immensely rewarding.

We’re looking for empathetic, patient and resilient people to join us as probation services officers. As well as making a difference to others, the role offers plenty of on-the-job training and a real chance to build a career in the Probation Service.

As a PSO, you’ll have a similar job to a fully qualified probation officer. The main difference is you’ll work with medium and lower risk clients. That’s not to say it’ll be easy. There’s no doubt this is a challenging role.

This is an interesting and rewarding role to start or develop your career in the Criminal Justice System and learn all aspects of Prison and Probation work, with extensive career development opportunities within Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) and wider Ministry of Justice (MOJ). The Probation Service is committed to learning and development, and full training for the role is provided, with regular support and supervision being provided throughout your journey to develop your skills and experience.

**Job Title**: Probation Services Officer

The job holder will provide case management support to a full range of people on probation utilising service procedures and practice directions that underpin professional judgement.

**Summary**

To assess and manage the risk (including risk management plans and escalation) posed by people on probation to protect victims of crime and the general public by:

- Liaising, providing information and advice to criminal courts, criminal justice agencies and other partner agencies.
- Work with other agencies and groups to prevent crime and meet the needs of victims and people on probation.

In line with PS policies and procedures, the job holder must at all times demonstrate a commitment to equality and inclusion and an understanding of their relevance to the work they do.

The post holder must adhere to all policies in respect of the sensitive/confidential nature of the information handled whilst working in this position.

If relevant to the role, some out of hours working may be required (i.e. Courts, Approved Premises, programmes, evening reporting etc.).

**Responsibilities, Activities & Duties**

The job holder will be required to carry out the following responsibilities, activities and duties:

- To undertake the full range of offender management tasks with people on probation assessed as low or medium risk of harm and to support the Probation Officer grade in high risk cases.
- When providing case manager support, to contribute to the delivery of the Risk Management plan and report significant changes relating to risk of harm and/or of reoffending or any non‐compliance within agreed enforcement procedures.
- To use computer based systems to produce, update and maintain records and other documentation within agreed timescales.
- Ensure effective referrals to services and facilities and communicate with offender management staff, interventions staff, service providers and external agencies to review progress and associated risks.
