Stores Person

We are excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a permanent Stores Person at HMP Wymott in Leyland.

This is a varied, hands-on role at the heart of the prison's day-to-day operations. You will help ensure that stock and essential supplies are received, controlled and delivered safely and efficiently throughout the establishment.

Prisoners work within the Stores, and you will also make deliveries to prisoners and staff across the prison. It is therefore essential that you are comfortable working in a secure prison environment and engaging professionally with prisoners.

• Maintain effective stock control, ensuring items are stored securely and records remain accurate.
• Receive deliveries, including occasional early-morning deliveries, and ensure goods are managed efficiently.
• Deliver stock and essential items to prisoners and staff across the prison in a safe and timely manner.
• Supervise prisoners working within the Stores, maintaining clear professional boundaries and safe working practices.
• Collect items locally when required.
• Work collaboratively with colleagues to provide a reliable Stores service for the wider prison.

Working hours: 39 per week, Monday to Thursday, 07:30-16:30, and Friday, 07:30-15:30.
