Female SIA Door Supervisors
We are Showsec, the award-winning venue and event security specialist dedicated to achieving excellence in crowd management.
We are seeking additional female SIA Door Supervisors to join our team at Loughborough Student’s Union. Whether you’re looking for lots of work or just a handful of shifts, our casual agreement offers you flexibility to choose how frequently you would like to work. Due to the nature of the events industry, weekend and evening availability is absolutely essential. Please be aware that events at LSU tend to be club nights, so shifts will start late evening and finish during the early hours of the morning.
You must be able to demonstrate that you can communicate clearly, and you should be confident to take the initiative on implementing crowd safety measures. You will deliver excellent service while maintaining a safe and secure environment for our clients and customers. For this role we expect a high level of professionalism, integrity, and competency.
Showsec can offer you industry leading training and development opportunities, with the chance to work your way up the ladder:
Steward > Door Supervisor > Event Supervisor > Head of Security > Operations Supervisor > Operations Executive > Area Management
Showsec is an equal opportunities employer, and we have a variety of opportunities available. We are only accepting female applicants as part of our ‘Women in Security’ strategy for this role. This is due to the occupational requirement to conduct body searches on female customers. Should this opportunity not be suitable for you, please visit our website and apply for another role with us.
