Estate Patrol Officer London, England
Job description
About The Role
Estate Patrol Officer
A fantastic opportunity has arisen within Bidvest Noonan for Estate Patrol Officers, who will work at our client’s prestigious premises in London.
King’s Cross is one of the largest and most exciting redevelopments in London, warranting its very own postcode and drawing in national and international tourists, commuters, families, and educational groups alike.
The 67-acre site has a rich history, impressive heritage, and the most unique and diverse setting. What was once an underused industrial wasteland, has been transformed into a new part of the city with homes, shops, offices, galleries, bars, restaurants, schools, and even a University. It’s a whole new piece of London to explore and a truly iconic place to work. All these things come together at King’s Cross to make it unique, exciting and really quite special.
Our security role isn’t for the faint hearted, it breaks the norm and requires a unique person to drive this service, represent a globally recognised brand and lead an empowered, professional, and energetic team across the entire Estate. Think security meets a host mentality.
King’s Cross is all about people and this position will be paving the way for personality, punctuality and vigour.
Ready to nail the role of lifetime and be a part of London’s history?
