Service Care Solutions is looking for a committed and empathetic Prison Support Worker to join our team, working across two sites near Leeds.
The position requires an enhanced DBS check and prison vetting clearance but offers a generous benefits package, including 30 days of annual leave plus bank holidays.
This full-time role involves splitting your time between HMP Leeds (three days per week) and HMP Wealstun, totaling 35 hours a week.

This is an excellent opportunity to educate and rehabilitate adult learners.
We have opportunities to join our experienced and dedicated Family Services Team working within the visitors' centre at HMP Highpoint providing a personal welcome for first-time and returning visitors to help them access the services available to them.

As part of a ground-breaking and hugely transformational partnership with Mitie Care & Custody and People Plus, Forward have been successful in its bid to be a top table delivery partner in the operation of HMP Millsike, a brand-new Resettlement Prison situated on land opposite the existing HMP Full Sutton, currently in construction and due to open in April 2025.
This represents a chance for Forward to evolve our mission in a way that will be an integral part of a completely new way of delivering prisons within the prison system, and one that will be a huge reputational boost for our organisation, as the first to have a top table seat in our sector.
