Location: HMP Long Lartin Salary: £33,746 - £38,003 per annum
Prison officers protect the public and help to make a positive impact on people’s lives. If you have the integrity, skills, and strength of character we’re looking for, this fast-paced role could be the start of a successful career. No two days or situations are ever the same. With experience, you’ll find a range of opportunities to grow and develop.
Someone like you
There’s no such thing as a typical prison officer. Our people come from different backgrounds—just like the offenders they support. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or have worked in retail or the armed forces, you’ll have developed the empathy, self-confidence, and strong communication skills we take pride in.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
Whether facing a challenge, you’ll prioritise building constructive, positive, and professional relationships with offenders who may be at their lowest point in life.
Teamwork is vital here. You must be fully committed to supporting colleagues, embodying resilience, and working as one team to ensure the safety of both the prison population and everyone who works here.
Note: You will be required to work various shifts, including weekends.
An extraordinary job
In this dynamic role, a single day might see you transitioning between multiple critical functions:
- A peacekeeper, maintaining order
- A counsellor, providing support
- A teacher, facilitating rehabilitation
Working directly with prisoners exposes you to unique challenges in a structured environment, enabling you to protect the public while implementing positive change.
