## Description

This is a rolling campaign for former qualified probation officers who have left the Civil Service within the last five years.

If you are a former qualified probation officer who has 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.

The scheme offers a fast-track return to the service with no requirement to undertake a lengthy application form, interview and repeat any entry level training or assessment process.

- Civil Servants can return within 5 years of leaving their last post.

- There is no right of return for any individual, this is a matter of business need in the relevant civil service organisation.

**Options for working arrangements and contract:**

- Full or part-time either permanent or temporary contract – temporary contracts are available for three, six or nine months.

**Pre-employment checks:**

- You will be subject to pre-employment checks, including an Occupational Health Review, and security vetting which all successful candidates are required to pass.
