Enhanced Security Officers play a vital role in the protection of our Client's premises, assets, personnel, and visitors, which are the key priorities of the security provider. They are required to project a security presence which is both commanding and authoritative whilst remaining calm and professional at all times.
Security Officers fulfil various roles as tasked by their Supervisors and as such are high-profile enablers to the site and a key representative of the security provider and the Hinkley Point C Project. Part of the Security duties include being trained to use the Delivery Management System and liaising with vehicle drivers arriving on the main construction site and checking all details are correct and vehicles are released to and from the site in accordance with our DCO obligations. All duties are to be conducted with Health & Safety at the forefront of any task and in full compliance with the Assignment Instructions and Site Guidance Procedures.
Our Enhanced Security Officers employed on the Hinkley Point C Project are trained to an enhanced service level and their performance must meet or exceed the expectations of the security provider and our Client.
Previous security experience is desirable but is not essential. Successful candidates are required to hold a valid Security Industry Authority (SIA) Licence (Security Guard level or above).
