Northern Security is growing, and we are looking for an Operations Manager to manage our Security Officers across Carlisle and Cumbria.
You will be out on site regularly, getting to know our officers, checking in on their welfare, carrying out KPI visits and appraisals, and making sure they have the training they need for the sites they work on. Where there are performance issues, you will deal with them.
