Who we're looking for


We are seeking people with life skills who can communicate well, remain calm under pressure, and want to help young offenders make better choices.

The role includes positive leadership and supervision while assisting in the care, development and security of young people in custody in NSW, and the safe and secure transport of young people between courts and Youth Justice Centres.

We are seeking people to practice and encourage pro-social values and behaviours in their interactions with young people.

About Youth Justice NSW
Youth Justice NSW is a division of the Department of Communities and Justice within the Stronger Communities NSW cluster.

Formerly known as Juvenile Justice, Youth Justice NSW supervises and provides custodial and community-based services for young offenders under the _Children (Detention Centres) Act, 1987_.

There are six Youth Justice centres across NSW which accommodate young offenders and offer health, educational and spiritual services - including individual case management, specialised counselling, and training in job and living skills.

There are 34 Youth Justice community offices that provide community-based intervention for young people who are at risk of reoffending.

Youth Justice NSW aims to work with young people to reduce their reoffending, rehabilitate and return them to society.

About the Court Logistics Unit


The Court Logistics Unit comprises multidisciplinary staff and teams of Youth Officers who supervise and provide direct appropriate care and custody of young people appearing at various courts, and the safe and secure transportation of young people between courts and Youth Justice Centres.

The Court Logistics Unit is based across three Sydney metropolitan Youth Justice Centres and five Children's Courts Holding Facilities managed by Youth Justice.


About the role


Court Logistics Youth Officers are responsible for the transportation of young offenders in secure transport vehicles between centres and to courts across NSW.

Youth Officers are accountable for supervision of young people in custody at the five metropolitan Children's Courts and other regional Courts.

Youth Officers provide support and guidance to young people during their court appearances, some of whom exhibit challenging behaviour.

Court Logistics Youth Officers ensure young people's needs are met by practicing pro-social modelling and encouraging pro-social values and behaviours in their interactions, while maintaining the safety and security of the unit.

Court Logistics Youth Officers are rostered according to operational needs within the Sydney metropolitan area. It is primarily a Monday to Friday role but may include some weekend work. Allocated shifts are Monday to Friday (8.5 hr shifts, includes 1⁄2 hr lunch). Usual shifts are 8am pm, though some shifts can start earlier or later. There are some opportunities for overtime after allocated shifts or on weekends.

The positions are based at various Sydney Metropolitan locations as follows:

  • Youth Justice Centres: Cobham (St Marys), Reiby (Campbelltown) and Frank Baxter (Kariong)
  • Children's Courts: Surry Hills, Parramatta, Campbelltown, Broadmeadow, Woy Woy and Cobham AVL (Cobham Youth Justice Centre)


Court Logistics Youth Officers are frontline staff who predominantly work outside the secure residential units of a Youth Justice Centre.

For this reason, Court Logistics is a specialised unit that focuses on the secure supervision and transportation of young people, through use of secure vehicles, advanced security technology and Youth Officers who undertake specialised training in secure movements of young people in custody.


The role offers:

  • A culturally diverse workplace with equal opportunity
  • Access to staff benefits
  • Supportive team environment
  • 5 weeks of fulltime training to prepare you for entrylevel duties
  • A job that gives back to the community
  • Encouraging young people in prosocial behaviours to reintegrate back into society
  • Ongoing training and support

As a Court Logistics Youth Officer you will:

  • Supervise young people in custody at various court locations and in transportation, and ensure all their needs such as health, hygiene and wellbeing are met on a daily basis
  • Respond to challenging situations
  • Maintain a safe and secure environment for the young people and staff at all locations
  • Proactively avert risk and solve problems
  • Be a positive role model who is willing to reinforce bound
