Security Support Officer

As one of the top 100 universities in the world, The University of Sheffield benefits from a dynamic multicultural environment, where every student is valued and welcomed. Our Security Team is dedicated to ensuring a safe, secure and welcoming environment for students, staff and visitors. We are looking for 2 full-time Security Support Officers to join our team.

As a member of the team, you will act as an ambassador for the University of Sheffield, providing a highly visible presence and service around campus. You will be responsible for carrying out a range of tasks to ensure the safety of university students, staff, visitors and property. Responding to incidents and emergencies in line with University Safety and Security Procedures, you will demonstrate careful judgement, excellent customer service and a high level of integrity.

You will consistently demonstrate the University’s core values of openness and inclusiveness and help to drive continuous improvement in a challenging environment. Although you will have demonstrable experience of working in a customer facing role, we will provide you with a comprehensive induction and an on-the-job training programme.

Appointments will be made through the University recruitment process and applicants will be considered solely on the merit of skills and experience relative to the role.

We’re one of the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal and professional development.

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles whose talent and contributions complement each other to best effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
