TEAMWORK. VARIETY. CHALLENGE.
Probation Officers play a vital
role in making communities safer. By effectively managing
sentences and orders such as community work, home detention and
parole, Probation Officers aim to minimise risk of further harm.
As a Probation Officer you’ll
work closely with offenders to make sure they’re meeting the
conditions of their sentence or order. You’ll assess people
and their situations to manage risk, set and maintain boundaries
and motivate offenders to make positive changes.
You’ll be someone who relates
to people from all different backgrounds and cultures -
you’ll need resilience, common sense and maturity.
If you’re a solid
communicator, computer literate, and have strong written skills,
becoming a Probation Officer could be an excellent career choice
for you. You’ll have the chance to connect with people,
build strong relationships and do something which really makes a
difference and improves public safety.
As an employer, the Department of
Corrections offers personal and professional development, clear
career progression and job security.
