• Presenting Updates: Report progress and updates at the Activity Allocation Board twice weekly, highlighting successes and addressing challenges.
• Tracking and Monitoring: Regularly review prisoner progress, adjust allocations as needed, and ensure alignment with individual development plans.
• Supporting Evening and Weekend Programmes: Allocate prisoners to enrichment activities that enhance their rehabilitation journey.

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking someone with:

• A Business Administration qualification, Level 2 or equivalent
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail to manage complex records and ensure smooth allocation processes.
• Excellent communication skills, including the ability to work collaboratively with diverse teams and present confidently.
• Proficiency in IT systems and ability to pick up new in-house systems quickly
• A proactive approach to problem-solving, ensuring every prisoner has access to purposeful activities tailored to their needs.

Desirable Experience

• Working in a prison or secure environment.
• Familiarity with educational, vocational, or rehabilitation programmes.
• Understanding of offender management and rehabilitation processes.

Interviews will take place w/c 6th January.
