An established property management company is looking to appoint an Area Security Manager to support a portfolio of nine commercial and retail-led sites across Yorkshire and the East Midlands. This is a strong opportunity for an experienced Security Manager, Security Lead, Contract Manager or existing Area Manager who wants to move into a broader regional role with greater responsibility across governance, compliance, performance and service standards.

You will be responsible for:
- Conducting site assurance and support visits across the regional portfolio
- Ensuring compliance with internal procedures, assignment instructions and security standards
- Supporting onsite Security Leads with performance, training and operational issues
- Reviewing incidents, investigations and action plans
- Monitoring KPIs and service delivery standards
- Supporting recruitment, inductions and development across security teams
- Working closely with property management teams, suppliers and client stakeholders
- Supporting employee relations matters alongside HR
- Helping drive improvements in customer experience, technology and security processes
- Supporting new-site mobilisations, including TUPE, systems, training and operational readiness
You are likely to have:
- At least 3 years’ experience within the security industry
- Experience managing or supervising security teams
- Strong knowledge of security compliance, procedures and operational standards
- Experience carrying out audits, reviews or assurance visits
- Confidence dealing with clients, senior stakeholders and site management teams
- Exposure to HR processes, incident investigations and staff development
- A strong customer-service mindset
- The ability to work autonomously across a regional portfolio
- A full driving licence and willingness to travel regularly between sites
Package: £38,000 base salary, 14% car allowance, additional £850 allowance, business mileage, 37.5-hour working week, wider company benefits.
