About The Role
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Team Leader to join the Campus Support Team within Campus Services at Liverpool John Moores University.
- You will provide day to day leadership on shift, working closely with the Campus Support Supervisor to keep the team focused, motivated and delivering a consistently high standard of service.
- This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys coaching and developing people, and who can bring calm, consistent leadership to a busy, fast moving environment.
- You will support your supervisor in setting clear expectations, addressing performance and conduct issues fairly and directly when they arise, and helping the team pull together at what is an important time of development for the department.
- You will be a visible presence on shift, leading by example and building trust with your colleagues.
- In the absence of the supervisor, you will take on full responsibility for the shift, so you will need to be confident making decisions and comfortable being accountable for the team's performance.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
For this role it is essential that you hold a full UK driving licence with a maximum of 3 penalty points. You will also be required to demonstrate flexibility due to the shift pattern and respond to variations in business patterns in support of colleagues and customers.
About You
- You will have a background in security or a similarly regulated, customer facing environment, ideally gained in a voluntary, retail or public sector organisation, giving you credibility with a team that knows the job inside out.
- You will be a natural coach and mentor, able to bring colleagues with you rather than simply direct them, and confident having honest conversations when standards slip.
- You will be firm but fair: someone who deals with issues promptly and consistently, supports your supervisor rather than working around them, and helps build a settled, high performing team.
- You will bring excellent communication skills, sound judgement, and the resilience to stay calm under pressure.
