We currently have an amazing opportunity to join G4S to work on a new contract in the Maidenhead area! The role will be based at a high-profile security site in the area, meaning that we are looking for candidates who have the security experience desired to work on such a site. It is brand new, so it will have modern facilities, free parking, an on-site gym and access to the customers' employee discount scheme too! If you have experience in the security field, then this would be the job for you. Ideally, we are looking for SIA licensed candidates, however, we can help support you through the SIA license course if successful.


The position will be working on a 4 on, 4 off shift pattern covering day and night shifts. This means that you will need to be flexible to work Monday to Sunday. The site location is difficult to get to on public transport, so we are looking for candidates who are able to drive.


Please be aware that this role is due to not go live until the beginning of September.


Role Responsibilities:


  • Patrols of the site, internal and external
  • Security receptionist duties
  • Creating passes and ID cards
  • Searches in line with the customer's search policy
  • Response to security breaches, fire alarm activation and first aid
  • Report writing
  • Liaising with the relevant authorities when required
  • CCTV operating
  • Access and Egress control

Due to the nature of the site and the information that they hold, successful candidates will need to go through a DV clearance. To make you aware, this means that questions will be asked in the telephone interview in relation to this.
