The Ideal Candidate
You will need to be a confident communicator who is a team player with the drive to provide a friendly and professional service at all times. Good IT knowledge is also key. You will need to be able to work on a varied shift pattern which includes days, nights, and weekends. This will consist of 12-hour shifts starting at 0630 (day shift) and 1830 (night shift). It would be a benefit to have some security experience and your SIA license, however, it is not essential, as we provide full SIA (Security Industry Authority) license training.
Join G4S and you can also enjoy real career progression with a large international company - as the world’s leading provider of security solutions, we offer loads of training and support. You’ll be in safe hands from our induction and on-site training to regular reviews and welfare checks with our managers.
G4S is a leading global security and outsourcing group, specialising in outsourcing business processes in sectors where security and safety risks are considered a strategic threat. G4S have recently been acquired by Allied Universal making the company the biggest security provider and the 7th largest employer in the World.
As this is a security role we’re required by law to ask a number of screening questions. You’ll only have to do this once to be eligible to apply for G4S and our wide range of security roles so we’ve made this as quick as possible.
