Your focus will be on making sure that our customers are safe, that our buildings are secure and pleasant places to be, and that we get on with our neighbours.

**About you**

You’ll patrol to check fire doors, making sure everything is locked and secure, as well as investigating suspicious activity or raising the alarm when we need to engage the emergency services. Finally, if there is time, you’ll also help us make sure that everything is clean and tidy, so you need to be ok with wielding the mop or broom as well
