Protect Innovation. Enable Discovery. Be Part of the Future.
Are you energised by technology, fascinated by AI and emerging science, and motivated by the opportunity to work in one of London's most exciting innovation environments?
Wilson James is looking for an exceptional Security Coordinator to join our team supporting a prestigious client venue in the heart of King's Cross. This is not a traditional security role. You'll work at the intersection of security, technology, operations, and stakeholder engagement, helping to safeguard people, property, ground-breaking ideas, and highly confidential intellectual property.
We're looking for someone with a genuine enthusiasm for technology, someone who enjoys meeting people, thrives in dynamic environments, embraces challenges, and is passionate about contributing to a community shaping the future.
Why This Role is Different
Imagine working in a space where innovation happens every day. A venue that brings together cutting-edge technology, AI, science, research, and collaboration. As the Security & Operations Coordinator, you'll play a vital role in creating an environment where innovation can thrive safely and securely.
You will be trusted to manage sensitive information, support high-profile stakeholders, coordinate operational security plans, and protect valuable intellectual property. Discretion, integrity, and professionalism are absolutely essential.
About The Role
You'll act as a key member of the Public Space Security Operations team, supporting:
- Security planning and risk management
- Event and operational security coordination
- Stakeholder engagement and intelligence gathering
- Incident management and escalation
- Security reporting, metrics, and analysis
- Protection of people, facilities, assets, and confidential information
- Development of operational procedures and security protocols
- Community, visitor, and venue support activities
You will also take a lead role during events and day-to-day operations, ensuring a safe, welcoming, and professional experience for visitors, staff, community groups, and partners.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
