HMP Millsike is situated on 50 acres next to HMP Full Sutton, a few miles east of Stamford Bridge,
- and will house around 1,500 category C prisoners - those who are considered to be a moderate risk and are housed in closed prisons.
Facilities management company Mitie will be running the new prison, with its Care and Custody business launching an initial recruitment drive for 350 staff, with more to follow.
Live vacancies include Operational Support Grades, Prison Custody Managers, and Prison Custody Officers.
Previous experience working in a prison is not required, as successful applicants will receive extensive training, the company says.
In the coming months, other roles will be on offer, including Engineers, Psychologists, Administrators, Security and Intelligence Officers, Behaviour Analysts, Teachers, Vocational Instructors, Family Workers and Cleaners.
