Come and join our team
Our Retail Support Officers (RSO) provide an important service to our branches, helping to keep our colleagues safe and protect our business.
As an RSO, you’ll provide security support to our branches across East Anglia. This support will vary from immediate response to providing colleagues with advice and guidance following an incident. We’re passionate about managing anti-social behaviour through colleague support and training and proactively engaging with the local community.
Developing professional and positive working relationships with colleagues in-branch, as well as with external stakeholders, such as the Police, Local Authorities and community groups, is key to success in this role.
Whist previous experience or qualifications in security / loss prevention would be desirable, this is not essential. However, you will need to show that you have good judgement and decision-making skills – especially when under pressure - as well as the ability to communicate effectively.
We are truly local so, whatever your experience, you can work safe in the knowledge that you will be fully supported in this role by our state-of-the-art Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) and the wider Security team, as well other Society colleagues.
Our working patterns are non-contractual. Any advertised working pattern represents the normal working pattern for the role at time of advertisement and may be subject to change.
What you’ll be doing
- Respond to incidents of theft, robberies, anti-social behaviour and general security observations, as directed by the ARC or Security Management.
- To detain and deter offenders, sometimes with the support of colleagues, but typically, alone.
- Investigate thefts, taking witness statements and gathering evidence, including downloading and reviewing CCTV.
- Compile written reports including police statements (to include the details of linked incidents, where appropriate), presenting findings to the ARC and/or Security Management and Police.
- To provide advice, guidance and training to colleagues on best practice in dealing with anti-social behaviour, theft and other security matters.
- Provide welfare support to colleagues further to incidents of anti-social behaviour.
- Take a pro-active approach in forming effective relationships with the Police and local communities
- Complete other duties requested by the ARC and/or Security Management, e.g. welfare and response tasks, campaigns in-branch, etc.
The person we are looking for
- Flexible, hard-working and confident
- Professional and self-motivated
- Able to work alone on own initiative and also as part of a team
- Punctual, both in attendance and in delivery of work against timescales
- Reacts quickly and embraces change
- Able to communicate effectively and empathise with colleagues and the general public
- SIA CCTV and Guarding licences
- Uses up to date professional and technical competence to achieve objectives
- Full UK driving licence (a company vehicle will be provided)
