Overview
Anchor Group Services is looking for professional and reliable security professionals to join our team as a Relief Security Officer at Fiddlers Ferry Power Station in Warrington.
This is an excellent opportunity for experienced Security Officers who take pride in maintaining a safe and secure environment while delivering a professional and approachable service. We are seeking individuals who can confidently engage with employees, contractors, visitors and members of the public, acting as a visible security presence and ensuring site procedures are followed at all times.
This role is based within a large industrial environment, requiring officers to remain vigilant, proactive, and responsive throughout their shifts. Responsibilities include conducting regular site patrols (including vehicle patrols using an on-site company vehicle), monitoring access and egress points, carrying out security checks, monitoring CCTV systems, responding to incidents, and reporting any suspicious activity or security concerns.
We are seeking officers with strong observational skills, strong verbal and written communication, a professional appearance, and the confidence to work independently while maintaining high standards of safety and security. The ability to remain alert, make sound decisions, and take a proactive approach to identifying and addressing potential risks is essential.
This role requires flexibility, reliability, and a strong work ethic, as you will support the site security team by covering shifts as required, including a variety of days, nights, weekends, and bank holidays.
The successful candidate must hold a valid SIA Licence as a minimum. A CCTV licence is preferred but not essential, provided you have knowledge of CCTV systems. A full UK Manual Driving Licence is required, as this role involves mobile patrols using an on-site company vehicle.
