| Description: | BI provides a full continuum of offender monitoring technologies and community reentry services for parolees, probationers, pretrial defendants and illegal aliens involved in the U.S. immigration court process. BI also owns and operates an ISO-certified national monitoring center, providing 24/7 expert support supervision services exclusively to governmental agencies. BI works closely with corrections officials to cost effectively reduce recidivism, promote public safety, and strengthen the communities they serve. JOB DESCRIPTION: If you want to make a difference in the quality and safety of our communities, BI is right for you. It’s a place to grow your career - your launching pad for success. We are looking for talented professionals to join our team. Our team of professionals is experienced and motivated, but we need you for our innovative and expanding Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) Division.

ISAP Case Specialist - Job Description WHAT TO EXPECT: Case Specialists interface with a range of stakeholders including program participants and their families, community resources, our local customer contact, and BI staff.

Some participants will be supervised using electronic monitoring ankle bracelets or other technology.
