We are seeking an experienced Senior Security Consultant / Systems Engineer to lead security design packages and systems solutions across a diverse portfolio of projects.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Undertaking physical security and forced-entry surveys, identifying vulnerabilities and assessing site-specific risks.
• Assessing the forced-entry resistance of building elements, including walls, floors, roofs, doors, glazing, frames and locks.
• Developing layered physical security and hardening solutions for new and existing facilities.
• Preparing security strategies, Operational Requirements, Security Management Plans and technical specifications.
• Coordinating security requirements with architecture, structures and building services teams.
• Completing technical reviews, design surveys, installation inspections and security assurance activities.
• Communicating complex security requirements clearly to clients and project teams.
