At its core, being a probation officer is more than skills and qualifications. It’s about how you show up for people.

As a corrections psychologist, you are someone who sees beyond the surface. You’re passionate about making a positive impact to the lives of people.

Join us at one of our upcoming information sessions and discover more about a career as a Probation Officer with our Canterbury team.

We need people with skill – absolutely. But the ones who truly make an impact? They bring skill and heart. That’s what sets our corrections officers apart.

Programme facilitators run group sessions to help people understand their offending and develop strategies for change.

We asked our staff to share real stories, insights and advice on what it’s like working at the Department of Corrections.
