Looking for a unique job experience? How about prison?

UK’s Ministry of Justice is on a drive to hire Prison Officers.  Here’s their pitch:

Working in a prison is a truly unique experience. No two shifts are the same. You’ve got to be resilient, confident and a great communicator.

Our prison officers perform a vital role in society, in an environment like no other. We are peacekeepers, teachers, counsellors. You could be too.

As a prison officer, you’ll be part of a diverse team doing meaningful work in our prisons.

You’ll work with a range of people and perform a variety of tasks – from keeping the prison safe and secure, to helping vulnerable people through a difficult time in their lives.

Prisons can be unpredictable, but it’s about working together and keeping calm under pressure while enjoying the little things, like helping a prisoner learn a new skill or teaching them to view things from a new perspective.

It can be a challenging job, but in return you’ll get good pay, training and benefits, and have the support of a strong team.
