HMP Addiewell

A consortium* led by Kalyx signed a contract in June 2006 with the Scottish Prison Service to design, construct, manage and finance this new 700-place prison for the Scottish Prison Service at Addiewell, near West Calder in West Lothian. HMP Addiewell opened in December 2008.

Mr Herb Nahapiet OBE, Chairman of Kalyx said: "We and our consortium partners have worked closely with the Scottish Prison Service to produce an operationally-designed prison within which it will be possible to address offending behaviour and to contribute to the Scottish Executive's efforts to deliver a safer Scotland".

The design of HMP Addiewell is modern and compact; incorporates a number of innovative aspects; and has been constructed to a high standard of physical security.

A number of jobs have been created across a broad spread of skills and disciplines. If you would like to see what career opportunities are available please go to our vacancies page, or see more details on our news page.
