Come and join our team!
As Overnight Response Security Officer for East of England Co-op, you’ll play an important role in keeping our businesses and amazing colleagues safe. Furthermore, you’ll help to support and protect our valued Co-op Secure Response clients.
The Overnight Response Security Officer will support the wider Security team by carrying out assigned duties; these might relate to routine tasks, or in relation to incidents which have occurred during the day, for example. Equally, the Overnight Response Security Officer may be required to respond to incidents and security observations themselves, as they occur.
This is an overnight position, which entails travel across the East of England. Therefore, its important you’re comfortable with the working hours involved and you’re a confident driver. Ideally, you’ll enjoy your own company too, given lone-working is involved; however, you’ll be fully supported by our 24/7 Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), as well as our Security Management and wider Society colleagues.
Our working patterns are non-contractual. Any advertised working pattern represents the normal working pattern for the role at time of advertisement and may be subject to change.
What you’ll be doing as Security Officer:
· Respond to incidents and general security observations, as directed by the ARC or Security Management.
· Provide support to colleagues and clients, as well as customers, emergency services, etc, where required.
· Positively represent the Society and Co-op Secure Response in our communities.
As this role will involve regular travel across Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk, a company vehicle will be provided.
The Security Officer we are looking for:
· Knowledge and understanding of retail security
· Flexible, hard-working and confident
· Professional and self-motivated
· Able to work alone on own initiative and also as part of a team
· Punctual, both in attendance and in delivery of work against timescales
· SIA DS and CCTV licences
· Full UK driving licence
· Happy to work unsocial hours
