Summary
National Probation Officer Returner Scheme
Offer only open to former, qualified probation officers who have left the Civil Service within the last five years.
If you are a former qualified probation officer who left the Civil Service less than 5 years ago, and have completed your probationary period and training, we would like you to consider returning to the Probation Service and joining your former colleagues to keep the public safe and rehabilitate people on probation.
We can offer you a fast-track return to the service with no need to repeat any entry level training or assessment process. Should you meet the eligibility criteria for this post you can be allocated to an available position straight away. All open campaigns are listed here: Probation officer - Justice Jobs
If you are not yet ready to re-join at this time, you can still be part of our Probation Alumni Network to be kept up date on the latest developments for probation returners. If you have not already, visit Returners Scheme to learn more about the network and to register.
Eligibility:
This offer is open to all Qualified Probation Officers who have left the Civil Service:
Through resignation or retirement in the last 5 years and who, before leaving, had successfully completed their probationary period.
Open to former qualified probation officers who are currently working within the MOJ or other government departments.
Options for working arrangements and contract:
As part of your application, you will be asked to select up to three probation delivery units in your preferred work location, that are within an hour’s travelling distance of your home address.
The following options are available:
Full or part-time either permanent or temporary contract –temporary contracts are available for three, six or nine months.
Flexible contractual terms.
For temporary contract appointments:
We are offering temporary contracts on a three, six- or nine-month basis with the opportunity to extend the contract up to a maximum of two years, should you wish to do so and if there is a continuing requirement for your services.
As a temporary member of staff, you will receive the full range of Civil Service benefits other than permanent tenure. You will be automatically enrolled for pension although you may opt out. You will be entitled to 25 days' leave per annum, pro rata.
Pre-employment checks:
You will be subject to pre-employment checks including Occupational Health Review and you will undergo and clear pre-employment checks which will include Enhanced Level 2.
Once in your role, you will require access to the multi-agency ViSOR database, and you will therefore be required to undertake Non-Police Personnel Vetting (NPPV) Level 2.
This is routine and will apply to anyone who has been absent from the service for more than 28 days.
Training:
At the point of return, an individualised training needs analysis will be completed to identify training that has been completed and to schedule any relevant training that is required.
Full time salary:
£31,582 + London allowance of £4,126 for London, Staines and Watford base location where applicable.
Higher starting salaries (in line with current policy) can be considered on a case-by-case basis.
