• Excellent customer service and communication skills.
• Strong planning, time-management, and organisational skills.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Positive attitude with a strong work ethic.
• Good attention to detail and accuracy.
• Ability to make sound decisions and work effectively under pressure.
• Security training will be provided where required.

Driving Requirements

Due to the nature of this role, successful applicants may be required to:
