Looking for a Physical Security Manager to work for the client organisation on the High Speed Two programme responsible for ensuring & assuring that the physical security designs and the physical security-built assets across the entire 140miles of HS2 (except the stations) are per the contract & regulatory requirements.
The Opportunity
Join HS2, one of the UK’s largest and most complex infrastructure programmes, as a Physical Security Manager — ensuring world-class protection and resilience across the 140-mile high-speed rail route.
This is a pivotal security assurance role, overseeing the design and delivery of physical security systems for operational HS2 assets — including tunnels, viaducts, bridges, shafts, control rooms, depots, and other critical infrastructure (excluding stations).
You’ll be part of the team responsible for ensuring that all physical security measures — from CCTV and access control to alarms, blast resistance, and intrusion detection — are designed, implemented, and assured to meet the standards and regulatory requirements.
The Role
Reporting to a Senior Security Manager, you’ll work route wide, collaborating with civils and rail systems contractors to ensure compliance and where necessary the confidence to challenge their designs & built assets.
Key Responsibilities:
* Support the implementation of HMG Security Policy Framework and guidelines, reviewing designs and advising on best practice.
* Liaise with stakeholders such as Police Counter Terrorism Security Advisers (CTSAs) and Designing Out Crime Officers (DOCOs).
* Present security design justifications to the HS2 Security Steering and Design Panels.
* Provide security input to the HS2 Project Hazard Record, analysing threats and ensuring compliance.
* Support senior security leadership in maintaining strategic relationships with DfT Land Security, CPNI, and British Transport Police (BTP).
* Ensure all physical security design and implementation is fully compliant with UK legislation and HS2 standards.
Career Path & Development
With HS2’s programme extending into the 2034, you’ll benefit from outstanding long-term career progression — with a structured path to Senior Security Manager (£80k–£86k) and beyond.
Candidate Profile

* Rail, aviation, maritime, oil & gas, nuclear, power, water, defence, utilities etc
Ideal candidates will have:
* Experience in physical security assurance or advisory roles.
* Familiarity with national security frameworks and design standards.
* Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.

✅ Play a key role in one of the UK’s most significant infrastructure projects.
