About the role

You’ll work the arrivals desk on a busy office floor, greeting employees and guests and making sure everyone who comes in belongs there. It’s a mix of customer service and security.

• Calm tense situations using clear, respectful communication
• Write clear, factual incident reports when something happens
• Keep anything you see or hear at the post confidential

What you need

• Experience in corporate, campus or front desk security (a busy office lobby is a big plus)
• Current First Aid and CPR/AED covering adults, children and infants from the American Heart Association or American Red Cross, completed before your first shift
• Stop the Bleed training, completed before your first shift
• A calm, friendly and professional presence
• Willingness to sign a confidentiality agreement before starting

You’ll do well here if you

• Like talking with people and remembering faces
• Stay steady when the lobby gets busy
• Don’t mind asking a stranger a polite question
• Take pride in clean reports and a tidy desk
