SECURE THE PRESENT, SHAPE THE FUTURE - Transform Lives as a Prison Custody Officer!

If you're pursuing a career with meaning, we welcome you to apply for the position of Prison Custody Officer at HMP Addiewell

As a Prison Custody Officer, you’ll play a crucial role in maintaining safety, security, and order within our prison facilities. This is more than just a job – it’s a meaningful opportunity to support rehabilitation, ensure justice, and contribute to the wider community.

What You'll Do

Your responsibilities will include:

Maintaining a secure and disciplined prison environment
Supervising daily routines, prisoner movements, and scheduled activities
Escorting prisoners securely within and outside the facility
Responding calmly and professionally to challenging or high-pressure situations
Supporting rehabilitation initiatives and encouraging positive behaviours
Building respectful, professional relationships with prisoners to promote a safer, more supportive atmosphere

Who We're Looking For

There’s no such thing as a typical prison officer. Our team is made up of people from all walks of life – whether you’re a parent, former teacher, retail worker, member of the armed forces, or simply someone who thrives on helping others.

Whatever your background, if you’re a natural people person with strong communication skills, self-confidence, empathy, and resilience, we want to hear from you.

You’ll be working with individuals who may be at the lowest point in their lives. No matter the challenge, you'll be expected to build constructive, positive, and professional relationships based on fairness, consistency, and respect.

Teamwork Matters

Teamwork plays a vital role in this environment. You’ll need to be fully committed to supporting your colleagues and understand the importance of acting as one team to keep the prison safe – for staff, visitors, and prisoners alike.

Calm Under Pressure – Manage high-stress or unpredictable situations with a level head
Empathy & Respect – Treat everyone with dignity, regardless of their circumstances
Strong Ethics – Maintain fairness, professionalism, and integrity at all times
Resilience & Adaptability – Stay composed and effective, even when the job gets tough
Effective Communication – Listen actively and speak clearly and confidently
Conflict Resolution – Use de-escalation techniques to manage tension and disputes
Teamwork – Collaborate closely with colleagues for the safety and success of all
Vigilance – Remain observant, alert, and responsive to potential risks

Training and Development

You don’t need prior experience to apply. You’ll receive a comprehensive 8-week training programme, delivered locally, to fully prepare you for the role. This includes:

Classroom and practical learning
Conflict resolution and communication training
Shadowing experienced officers
Continued development and support throughout your career

Be at least 18 years of age at the time your employment begins
Meet the required eyesight standards in both eyes, with or without corrective lenses
Have an adequate level of hearing without the use of hearing aids, for safety reasons during training and operational duties
Tattoos are permitted, including those that are visible, but must not be offensive, discriminatory, violent, or intimidating.
Facial tattoos are generally not allowed, except where they are for cultural, religious, or medical reasons

A Role That Offers More

This role provides opportunities for personal growth, career progression, and the satisfaction of knowing your work truly matters. You’ll witness change first-hand and play a key part in supporting rehabilitation and community safety.

What We Offer:
