5. A background in security or events, with a genuine desire to advance a career in this industry, ideal for an event management graduate or someone interested in working within the events industry.
6. Previous experience in a similar role is a plus, along with familiarity in recruitment, screening, or staffing processes.

This role will be full-time, 40 hours per week based from our office. We offer a pension plan, employee assistance programme, and a range of discounts and benefits. Our office is conveniently located with excellent transportation links and free parking is available.
