Kriminalvården offers competence and career development. Our broad operations provide opportunities for varied work with interesting tasks. With us, there is the possibility for development both through deepened competence, through development within the existing role, and through advancement to other roles within the authority. You will also receive approximately 2 weeks of introduction before you start working.

Within the Stockholm region, there are several prisons and detention centers. We are now looking for correctional officers for summer temporary positions. In this advertisement, we offer placement at one of the detention centers Huddinge, Kronoberg, and Sollentuna or one of the prisons Hall, Beateberg, Asptuna, Färingsö & Svartsjö and Rosersberg. If you choose to apply, you will specify where you can work.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a correctional officer, you will be part of a team where you have daily contact with the client. The tasks at the prison are varied: care, surveillance, searching, and security work are mixed with release planning and conversation/motivation work. The work at the detention center is often routine-driven and focused on care and security tasks. Clients may be detained for long periods without meeting anyone other than their lawyer and the staff at the detention center, which places special demands on you as a correctional officer.

Working as a correctional officer means you can make a difference for other people and contribute to a better society. To thrive and succeed in your assignment, it is important that you share Kriminalvården's fundamental values of a humane view of people, respect for the individual, and the belief that people can develop.
