Advance your career by joining one of the most diverse public sector organisations in WA.

About the role

Pardelup Prison is a minimum-security prison situated approximately 27km west of Mount Barker. The farm is a 6,300-acre breeding property which supports and promotes the philosophy of a community reintegration facility for prisoners, combining three elements: the strong community focus of a work camp, the structured custodial environment of a traditional prison and the emphasis on reintegration that will be an increasingly important feature of all prisons in the future.

The Industries and Work Health and Safety (WHS) Manager develops, coordinates, and implements contemporary practices and procedures for work health and safety in accordance with legislation, conditions and standards required by the Department of Justice and WorkSafe WA. The role will be responsible for ensuring on site WHS compliance by staff, prisoners and contractors and will identify and carry out risk management assessments within the prison as required.

In addition, the Industries and WHS Manager directs, controls, and administers prison industries and prisoner employment functions at Pardelup Prison Farm to maximise meaningful and productive prisoner employment.
