About the Role
An extraordinary job, filled by people like you.
Protecting the public while helping to make a positive impact on people’s lives.
If you have the integrity, skills, and strength of character we’re seeking, this dynamic role could be the start of a successful career. No two days—or situations—are ever the same. As you gain experience, you’ll discover numerous opportunities to grow and develop.
No typical prisoner officer exists. Our team comes from varied backgrounds—just like the offenders they support. You could be a parent, teacher, retailer, or ex-Forces head, possessing the empathy, self-confidence, and strong communication we require.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll work with offenders at low points in their lives, but that won’t stop you from building constructive, positive, and professional relationships. Since teamwork is key here, you’ll be fully committed to supporting colleagues and understanding that unity keeps prisons, offenders, and staff safe.
Flexibility is critical. You must be willing to work shifts and weekends.
What You’ll Do
Every day offers unique challenges and variety. One moment, you’re a peacekeeper; the next, you act as a counsellor and mentor, even a teacher.
You’ll build meaningful connections, helping shape lives and—by extension—protecting the public.
