Whether you’ve completed your degree or are close to graduating, there could be a place for you here at the Department of Corrections.

A community work supervisor isn’t just a supervisor: You’re a teacher, a mentor, an unofficial counsellor.

At its core, being a probation officer is more than skills and qualifications. It’s about how you show up for people.

As a corrections psychologist, you are someone who sees beyond the surface. You’re passionate about making a positive impact to the lives of people.

We need people with skill – absolutely. But the ones who truly make an impact? They bring skill and heart. That’s what sets our corrections officers apart.
