Prison Officer

A Career as a Prison Custody Officer at HMP Millsike
Make a Real Difference Every Day

Are you looking for a career with purpose, challenge and the opportunity to change lives?

At HMP Millsike, our Prison Custody Officers (PCOs) play a vital role in creating a safe, respectful and rehabilitative environment where individuals are supported to make positive changes in their lives.

This is far more than a security role. Every day, you'll have the opportunity to influence behaviour, support rehabilitation and contribute to a safer community.

No two days are ever the same. The role can be challenging, rewarding and incredibly meaningful, offering the chance to make a genuine difference whilst developing valuable skills and building a long-term career.

Why Join HMP Millsike?

HMP Millsike is one of the UK's newest prisons, designed with rehabilitation, wellbeing and reducing reoffending at its heart.
As part of Mitie Care & Custody, we're building a diverse team of people who bring empathy, professionalism, resilience and strong communication skills to work every day.

We're not looking for people with prison experience. We're looking for people with the right values and attitude.

Many of our colleagues have previously worked in:

• Retail
• Customer service
• Healthcare
• Social care
• Hospitality
• Education
• The Armed Forces
• Security
• Transport and logistics
• Administrative roles

Your life experience could make you an excellent Prison Custody Officer.

What Makes a Great Prison Custody Officer?

Successful Prison Custody Officers come from all walks of life, but they often share similar qualities:

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Resilience and determination
• Empathy and compassion
• Integrity and professionalism
• The ability to remain calm under pressure
• Confidence to challenge inappropriate behaviour
• Good judgement and decision-making skills
• A commitment to fairness, inclusion and teamwork

If you enjoy working with people, solving problems and making a positive impact, this could be the career you've been looking for.

What Does the Role Involve?

As a Prison Custody Officer, you'll play an important part in maintaining safety, supporting rehabilitation and helping people work towards a better future.

Your responsibilities may include:

Keeping People Safe

• Maintaining a safe and secure environment for prisoners, staff and visitors
• Conducting welfare and security checks
• Supervising prisoner movements and daily activities
• Responding professionally to incidents and emergencies

Supporting Rehabilitation

• Building positive professional relationships with prisoners
• Encouraging positive behaviour and challenging poor behaviour appropriately
• Supporting individuals through difficult situations
• Helping prisoners engage with education, work and rehabilitation programmes

Working as Part of a Team

• Working alongside healthcare teams, education providers and partner agencies
• Communicating effectively with colleagues and stakeholders
• Promoting safer custody and reducing violence within the prison
• Supporting the smooth delivery of the daily prison regime

One thing often surprises candidates: the role is much more about people than they expect.

Whilst security is a fundamental part of the role, much of your day will involve communication, problem-solving, relationship building and supporting positive change.

What Are the Challenges?

Prison environments can be demanding and unpredictable.
You may encounter challenging behaviour, difficult conversations or situations that require you to think quickly and remain calm under pressure.

However, teamwork is at the heart of everything we do. You will be supported by experienced colleagues, managers and trainers who want you to succeed.

What Are the Rewards?

Many of our Prison Custody Officers tell us the most rewarding part of the role is seeing the positive impact they have on people's lives.

You may help someone:

• Build confidence
• Engage with education
• Develop skills for employment
• Reconnect with family
• Make better choices for the future

Those moments matter, and they can have a lasting impact on both individuals and the wider community.

Full Training Provided

No previous prison experience is required.
If successful, you'll complete our fully-funded 9-week Initial Training Course (ITC) at HMP Millsike, designed to provide the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to succeed in the role.

Your Training Includes

7 Weeks Classroom-Based Learning

Covering key topics such as:

• First Aid at Work
• Communication and Interpersonal Skills
• Restorative Practice
• Conflict Management
• Control and Restraint Training

2 Weeks Practical Shadowing

You'll work alongside experienced Prison Custody Officers, gaining valuable insight into daily prison operations and building confidence in a real operational environment.

Following training, you'll continue learning and developing with support from experienced colleagues and managers.

What You'll Receive

We believe in recognising and rewarding our people.
As a Prison Custody Officer at HMP Millsike, you'll benefit from:

• Salary of £37,818.90
• 42 hours per week
• Comprehensive paid training programme
• Ongoing career development opportunities
• 33 days annual leave including Bank Holidays
• Health and wellbeing support services
• Free onsite parking, including EV charging points
• Free access to onsite gym facilities
• Free meal during shifts from our subsidised canteen
• Blue Light Discount Card eligibility
• Access to Mitie's MiDeals discount platform
• Salary Finance financial wellbeing support
• Flexible benefits through the Choices platform
• Recognition through the Mitie Stars reward programme

Could This Be Your Next Career?

Starting a new career can feel daunting, especially if you've never considered working within a prison before.

At HMP Millsike, we are looking for people with potential, not necessarily people with previous prison experience.

If you're resilient, professional, compassionate and looking for a career where you can genuinely make a difference every day, we'd love to hear from you.

Join Mitie at HMP Millsike and help shape futures, support rehabilitation and create safer communities.
