As a Student Safety Team Member, you’ll be a vital part of keeping our students and buildings safe, comfortable, and welcoming during overnight hours. Your role will bring reassurance, care, and professionalism—whether patrolling safety routes, handling Excel handovers, responding to student needs, or managing emergencies.
Every shift with us is unique, from resolving incidents to offering supportive assistance in the early hours. You’ll thrive in fast-paced, challenging environments, connect meaningfully with people, and contribute to meaningful change.
Your Impact
Key Responsibilities
- Be the first friendly point of contact for students requiring overnight support, reassurance, or guidance.
- Maintain safety by responding calmly to incidents—such as fire alarms, noise complaints, security breaches, or maintenance issues.
- Foster a welcoming, inclusive environment, ensuring every student feels valued and cared for.
- Collaborate seamlessly with both day and night shifts to ensure smooth service continuity through effective handovers.
- Keep our spaces clean, orderly, and well-managed.
- Engage proactively with students’ wellbeing or welfare problems, intervening where necessary.
- Champion our CARE values (Connect, Act, Respect, Encourage) in every interaction.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
