Home, a place where you belong

If you?re as energised as a new Duracell bunny with the alert skills of a meerkat, this is the job for you!

What you?ll do

• If you want a quiet and calm (night) security job, then this is not the job for you!
• There is so much more involved than just (night working), stuck in an office monitoring CCTV or patrolling the premises.
• The first line of support for our customers when our wider team or their own support network isn?t around to help!
• You?ll manage the health and safety of the building, patrolling to check fire doors, making sure everything is locked and secure.
• Thinking on your feet and manage a situation on the spot, such as investigating suspicious activity or raising the alarm when we need to engage the emergency services.
• Finally, if there is time, you?ll also help us make sure that everything is clean and tidy, so you need to be ok with wielding the mop or broom as well!
