Job description

A role in security at Leeds Beckett is not just any security role.

We are offering a career, rather than just a job, with the chance to progress and develop whilst learning new skills.


We have a fantastic opportunity for confident individuals to join our teams working across our two university campuses, where no two days are the same.

You will undertake a wide range of duties in this broad role, with the opportunity to own an array of responsibilities, including:

  • Responding to alarms
  • Securing our buildings
  • Ensuring the safety of our staff, students and visitors
  • Monitoring CCTV
  • Campus patrols
  • First aid response
  • Crowd management at our events, like graduation and open days and special school events
  • Bag checks and supporting drinks receptions
  • Emergency response
  • Providing a firstclass customer service


We would like you to have an SIA door supervisor's license, but if you don't, we can provide this for you, you just need to be willing to undertake the training to obtain one (we will pay for this and then claim the cost back from your salary over a 3 month period).

You also undertake First Aid at Work training as well as a huge range of other benefits, including:


  • Competitive salary (£21,134 to £23,662) plus 12.5% shift pay and additional nights payments.
  • 26 days annual leave rising to 29 days over three years
  • A generous pension scheme
  • Discounted gym membership, including our swimming pool
  • Sick pay from day one
  • Maternity, paternity, shared parental leave and adoption packages
  • Shopping discounts
  • On the job training
  • Discounted study fees if you decide to study with us

We also ask that you have a full UK driving license with no more than six points.


We offer a 30-week rolling shift pattern of 7 3⁄4 hour shifts, with no more than two weeks of nights in that time.


  • Please provide your work history
  • Please tell us about a time when you have provided excellent customer service.
  • Please tell us about any experience you have working in security.
  • Please confirm that you either have an SIA license or are willing to undertake one. (The University will fund this and this will be repaid by you over three months, directly from your salary)
**Closing date: Sunday 6 August 2023 (Midnight)
