Job Description

The Community Supervision Officer will supervise a caseload of offenders placed under community supervision for felony and misdemeanor offenses. Specific duties will consist of monitoring the offender's compliance with the orders of the court through routine office, and field contacts to ensure community safety, referring the offender to behavioral changing resources, conducting assessments and individual case plans, urinalysis testing, performing intake interviews, communicating and working with other professional agencies, reporting violations of probation to the appropriate authority in a timely manner, providing effective courtroom testimony, and maintaining a high level of professionalism. Applicant must possess good technical writing and interviewing skills to prepare pre-sentence investigation reports. Additional duties may be assigned by the Director as needed.

Must have a bachelor's degree conferred by an institution of higher education accredited by an accrediting organization recognized by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Bachelor's degree in criminal justice, social work, psychology or related field and related work experience.

The duties of a Community Supervision Officer include office and field work, which both require the supervision of criminal offenders who may present physical danger to the officer and to the public. In the supervision of these offenders, essential duties require light to moderate physical exertion, including prolonged periods of walking and standing, physical dexterity and coordination, and use of self-defense tactics. Because a Community Supervision Officer must effectively deal with the possibility of physical altercations and is subject to possible moderate to heavy physical exertion, applicants must be physically capable. Must be able to sit and stand for prolonged periods of time. Moderate lifting and walking is also required. Both office and field work are required of all Community Supervision Officers, and both are essential job functions. Regular attendance and timeliness at the jobsite is required, and is an essential function of the job.

Applicant must pass a criminal history check, physical, and drug test. Must have a valid Texas class C driver's license.
