Job Description

About the Role The Adult Probation Department exists to promote the administration of justice and keep communities safe. The work isn't abstract — it's direct, daily contact with people navigating the criminal justice system, holding them accountable while helping them make real, lasting changes in their lives. This is a classified civil service position included in a voluntary recognition bargaining unit (union), which may include union dues. What you'll do Conduct pre-sentence and other investigations for the Court of Common Pleas, preparing accurate, thorough reports for judicial review. Supervise a caseload of clients granted supervision by the Court, ensuring they meet all court-ordered conditions. Monitor compliance with supervision requirements — employment, treatment, community service, financial obligations, and more. Apply evidence-based practices to assess risk, identify needs, and connect clients with appropriate services and interventions. Maintain detailed case records and documentation in accordance with department standards. Coordinate with judges, attorneys, law enforcement, treatment providers, and community organizations. Respond to violations and prepare violation reports; appear in court as required. Work to reduce recidivism by encouraging accountability and supporting positive behavioral change. About you Genuine interest in criminal justice, public safety, and working directly with a high-need population. Ability to manage a caseload independently, prioritize competing demands, and meet deadlines. Strong written and verbal communication skills — you'll write a lot of reports and spend a lot of time talking to people. Sound judgment and the ability to make decisions under pressure. Comfortable working in a structured, regulated environment with clear legal and ethical boundaries. Requirements Must successfully complete a six (6) month probationary period following hire. Must obtain state-mandated Probation Officer certification within six (6) months of hire. What to expect This is onsite work in a court-affiliated government setting. Caseloads can be demanding and the work involves regular contact with individuals who may be in crisis or non-compliant. It requires professionalism, consistency, and a genuine commitment to the department's mission. #J-18808-Ljbffr
