This is a varied role where you will be expected to travel between different locations, providing professional security support where required and becoming a trusted member of the wider regional team.

As an Area Relief Officer, you won't be permanently based at one location. You will work across multiple retail locations within the Oxford and Swindon area, providing reliable security cover and supporting different teams depending on operational requirements.

This role would suit an officer who enjoys variety, is comfortable adapting to different sites and takes pride in being someone the wider team can rely upon.
Your Responsibilities
- Providing a visible and professional security presence
- Supporting multiple retail locations across the area
- Travelling between different locations when required
- Preventing and deterring theft and criminal activity
- Responding professionally to incidents
- Supporting store management and colleagues
- Completing accurate incident reports and documentation
- Maintaining excellent customer service standards
- Adapting quickly to different sites, teams and working environments
- Providing reliable relief and operational support across the area

- Comfortable working independently
- Flexible and adaptable
- Confident working across different locations
- Comfortable travelling throughout the Oxford and Swindon area

Previous retail security experience is desirable
Due to the area-based nature of this position, access to your own reliable car is essential.
The successful candidate will need to travel between multiple locations across the Oxford and Swindon area and must be comfortable travelling between locations as required by the operation.
