Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

Are you tired of mundane security jobs offering no training or additional allowances?
- Are you looking to join a professional, supported, well-trained and motivated security team?
- Would you like to be employed by the University of Oxford with all its amazing benefits?
- Have you got excellent customer service skills?
- Do you work well as part of a dedicated team?
- Do you have a flexible, can-do attitude?

If you answered yes to the above, then an exciting opportunity has arisen for you to be an essential part of the security team at the prestigious Ashmolean Museum, working in a busy but extremely rewarding environment in the heart of Oxford and we would love to meet you.

This is a permanent, part-time post, working 30 hours per week.

Your role will be essential in protecting the safety and security of our colleagues, visitors and contractors as well as ensuring the security of our amazing exhibits. The security team also provides security for the many exciting events held within the Museum.

You will be part of a specialist team of highly-trained and dedicated security officers responsible for the effective implementation of the Museum’s security and safety procedures under the direction of the Head of Safety and Security.

You will be working in an environment surrounded by beautiful objects and working with amazing people. This position also gives the opportunity to receive training in Security and Customer Service as well as additional security-based qualifications to encourage development in the role. Training is very important in our team.

Your duties will include, but are not limited to:

- working in the Museum’s security control room.
- carrying out patrolling of the Museum for both security and health and safety purposes.
- providing pro-active assistance to the Museum’s departments including escorting duties
- providing a visible security presence at the front door.
- Working on the Museum reception desk.

You will be required to work shifts that cover daytime, late evenings, weekends and bank holidays, as required by the security rota and to provide cover for sickness and holidays within the team. Some late working past midnight for events will also be required and therefore flexibility to assist with additional shifts is extremely important.

You will be required, after passing your probation, and having received training to be part of the security team on-call rota. Therefore you must have the ability to respond to a call-out, out of normal working hours and reach the Museum within 30 minutes.

This role requires some manual handling and patrolling of the museum which includes climbing stairs.

You should possess excellent customer service qualities with a friendly persona and a willingness to go the extra mile to help the Museum achieve its objectives. You will also have the ability to make effective and reasoned decisions, sometimes under pressure or in difficult circumstances. An SIA Door Supervisors qualification and a First Aid qualification would be desirable but are not essential.
