1 week ago


Hamilton, Waikato, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time
"Ehara taku toa I te toa takitahi engari he toa takitini" - My strength is not the strength of my own, but the strength of many.

Our team at the Department of Corrections is dedicated and passionate.

We are united by our goal of making a positive difference in our community by reducing reoffending and making our communities safer.

Ngā kawenga | About the role
We have a duty of care to all those in our custody.

Everyday life brings different challenges and there will be times when the people in our care require more specialist medical intervention outside of our facility, from accident and injury to serious illness and palliative care.

We seek committed individuals to undertake hospital guard duties on an "as and when required" basis - usually at short notice, day or night.

Your main focus will be the close supervision and security of individual prisoners while inside a hospital facility.

This is a critical role as it allows us the comfort of knowing the safety and security of the community is in capable hands while we focus on operational requirements back in the prison environment.

Ngā pūkenga me ngā wheako | Skills and experience

The person we are looking for will:

  • Have the ability to communicate effectively
  • Remain calm and measured in pressure situations
  • Be vigilant and security conscious, while respecting hospital protocols
  • Be able to work as a team member and also alone
  • Take an objective, nonjudgemental approach to prisoners, demonstrating a degree of empathy in upholding rules and regulations
Working on a casual basis, the successful applicant will possess a flexibility to be available at very short notice. The hourly rate for this role is $28.61.

As part of our recruitment process you will be required to complete a full disclosure criminal history check, undergo a pre-employment drug test.

Full induction and training will be provided.
A full driver's licence is essential.

Ko wai mātou | About us

Ara Poutama Aotearoa is a name that has been gifted to us and is our commitment to improving the oranga and safety of the people, whānau, and that of the communities we serve across the motu.


To apply, please submit a tailored CV and a cover letter describing your motivation for joining the department highlighting relevant skills and experience.

Alignment to our kaupapa is critical to our success - we ask that you provide examples which reflect and demonstrate our organisation values.
