***This is an INTERNAL POSTING open ONLY for current employees of the NC Department of Adult Correction. ***

This position is located at Alexander Correctional Institution in Taylorsville, North Carolina.

Work in this class involves assisting in planning, supervising, and coordinating activities in a close custody institution. Employees supervise Correctional Sergeant III’s and may serve as the Officer-in Charge in absence of the Captain. Employees assist in planning and supervising personnel actions, administrative affairs, officers’ work schedules and coordinating activities involving discipline, security, and the welfare of the inmate population. Employees’ responsibilities are primarily custodial in nature serving as an assistant shift supervisor because of the large staffing structure. This level is distinguished from Correctional Lieutenant II based on increased staffing totals, supervision for the most dangerous and non-compliant inmates, larger inmate population totals and the complexity of the facility operation which generally includes restrictive and controlled housing. Employees typically report to a Correctional Captain III.
