The Lee County Sheriff’s Department said in a Facebook post that it has openings for adult and juvenile correctional officers and is accepting applications.
The positions are listed on the agency’s careers page at https://leecosheriff.com/careers, the post said. Correctional officers typically work in detention facilities to supervise detainees, maintain security and ensure safety for staff and those in custody.
The sheriff’s department is the primary law enforcement agency for Lee County and is responsible for public safety functions that often include patrol, jail operations and court security. Recruiting for correctional posts can affect staffing levels in local detention facilities and the broader criminal justice system.
The announcement provides an opportunity for residents seeking work in law enforcement or corrections. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
