Manchester is a thriving city with a busy events calendar and there is always something to look forward to!
We are looking to recruit additional Events & Match-day SIA Door Supervisors to join our team working at football, rugby or cricket matches, theaters, conferences and concerts across the region.
Manchester is a key location for G4S Events - not only could you be working at a Premier League Football Club or a high profile cricket ground and event venues, you can also have an opportunity to be part of broader music and sporting events across the region.

Our Event and Match-day Security Officers provide a visible reminder that safety is our number one priority for visitors and staff. Which means you could be inside or outside, on your feet showing people where to go, checking tickets at entry, monitoring the crowd and managing the car parking facilities. Wherever you are, you’ll be the fun, helpful and friendly face representing G4S Events.

- Carrying out pre and post event safety checks ensuring compliance with safe working procedures

You will need to hold your SIA Door Supervisor license - if you don't have this you can still be considered as a Steward so please see our other opportunities on the website. If this sounds like something you want to be involved in, you will just need to complete the following application form and one of our Recruiters will be in touch to discuss the next steps. Our recruitment and selection process is currently being conducted remotely which will include a video interview, however, we shall soon be hosting recruitment days in Manchester in the near future.
Given the nature of the industry, we do need to ask some questions for security and compliance purposes, but don’t worry - you will only need to complete them once.
Our recruitment and selection process will include a face to face interview, once the application has been submitted a member of our team will be in touch to get this arranged for you.
