What does a Correctional Officer do? Correctional Officers play an important role in keeping NSW communities safe. Working across prisons and court cells, they supervise and manage inmates in secured environments.

You may be conducting headcounts, completing searches, monitoring movements or helping run work and other programs. Other days you may need to deal with situations that require you to stay calm and make decisions under pressure.
