Recruitment: Roman Catholic Prison Chaplains

Mgr Malachy Keegan 350px

Many people in prison need more help and support at this time in their lives than at any other.

Roman Catholic Chaplains work to ensure the Sacramental and Pastoral needs of Roman Catholic prisoners are met. As a Chaplain you will carry out faith specific and generic duties, within a multi-faith team, taking part also in a range of resettlement activities including engaging with the local faith communities.

To be considered you must be an ordained priest, an ordained Deacon, Religious Brother or Sister, or a suitably qualified lay person in the Roman Catholic Church. Formal endorsement in the form of recognition from the Diocesan Bishop or Religious Superior is essential.

Vacancies arise in all prison establishments in England and Wales.

For further information, please visit the current recruitment section of our website hmprisonservice.gov.uk. to initiate a job alert for current and future vacancies.
