Help Change Lives Through the Justice System
We are looking for an experienced, motivated, and compassionate professional to join our Cranstoun Arrest Referral Intensive Supervision Court (ISC) team.
This is an exciting opportunity to work at the heart of the criminal justice system, supporting people at a pivotal point in their lives.

You will assess risk, identify safeguarding concerns, advocate for those you support, and help develop pathways that reduce reoffending and promote long-term recovery and wellbeing.
