Parole & Probation Specialists perform technical duties in administrative functions and units, which do not require peace officer status. Duties include casework services, investigations, tracking and monitoring assigned parolees and probationers, pre-sentence investigations, determination of restitution and supervision fees, and referral services for the assigned unit. Positions in this series obtain and verify information; prepare and process case files and recommend appropriate action; and monitor offender activities. Incumbents are not Peace Officer's Standards and Training (P.O.S.T.) certified and do not perform law enforcement functions such as conducting field inspections of offenders' worksite or residence, conducting surveillance, searches and arrests, or transporting prisoners to court or detention facilities.

Under general direction, incumbents plan, organize, coordinate and supervise the day-to-day activities of a large staff of Parole & Probation Specialist IIIs and IVs. Incumbents may be required to write pre-sentence investigation reports, but the primary focus at this level is to review the work of lower level Parole & Probation Specialists.
