Prison Service

Shaping lives, inspiring change and building safer communities
Life is extraordinary in both good and bad ways, and sometimes those paths cross. At Jersey Prison Service, every day brings a unique opportunity to make a real difference. Our team is privileged to be part of pivotal moments that shape people's futures.
Working in the Prison Service, you won't just ensure the smooth and secure running of the facility - you'll play a crucial role in supporting individuals on their journey towards rehabilitation and reintegration into society.
Building new futures
Reducing reoffending and preparing individuals for life beyond prison walls is at the centre of what we do. Our dedicated officers are the driving force behind this mission, offering guidance, structure, and support to those in our care.
You'll work alongside a diverse range of partners and stakeholders, including social services, healthcare professionals, the UK prison service, children’s services, and the courts, all united in a shared goal - to create a safer and more supportive community.
