Overview:
Our client is a private, for-profit company that owns and manages prisons, jails, and immigration detention facilities in the United States.

Since it's a correctional facility, you'll also oversee inmates assigned to assist with maintenance work. You're not acting as a correctional officer, but you will supervise them while they're helping with plumbing projects throughout the day.
