Job description

We are Showsec, the award-winning venue and event security specialist dedicated to achieving excellence in crowd management.

We are seeking experienced and reliable Supervisors to join our security team in Liverpool. You will be leading a dynamic team of SIA Door Supervisors and Stewards at venues such as O2 Academy and Liverpool Guild of Students, in addition to supervising large-scale events this summer. We are looking for dependable, professional candidates who can demonstrate sound judgement and integrity in high pressure environments. The ideal candidate should have proven experience of working as a Supervisor, Team Leader or similar leadership role.

Our casual contract offers you great flexibility to choose when you would like to work, although due to the nature of the events industry, please be aware that most shifts will be during evenings and weekends.

What you will be doing:

• Ensure the high-quality delivery of operations
• Adhere to and enforce venue policies and procedures, understand and apply relevant law and legislation to the role
• Motivate and develop the casual workforce in line with company objectives

• Completion of all administrative tasks, including report writing, in a timely manner
• Management and auditing of company assets including but not limited to uniform, radios and stationery
• Understand and promote Showsec vision, values and mission statement, including company initiatives
• Understand and complete responsibilities commensurate of a Supervisor role

As such, we expect applicants to hold at least 2 years’ experience working in the security industry, with 1 year working in a leadership role. In order to qualify for a Showsec Supervisor role, you will be required to complete our internal Supervisor course, and during your first few shifts you will shadow our existing Supervisor team to familiarise yourself with policies and procedures.

Showsec can offer you industry leading training and development opportunities, with the chance to work your way up the ladder:

Security Supervisor > Head of Security > Operations Supervisor > Operations Executive > Area Management

We can only accept applications from candidates who are local to Liverpool and Merseyside.
