Female Security Guard / Care Warden (SIA Licenced)

Due to the nature of the service and the needs of the female residents we support, this position is open to women only. Being a woman is an occupational requirement for this role under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010.

At TriGuard, we believe security goes beyond simply monitoring a site. It is about creating a safe, secure and supportive environment for the people who rely on our services.

As a Part‑Time Female Care Warden working across our clients’ supported housing facilities, you will help protect the safety, security and wellbeing of residents, staff and visitors.

This vacancy is specifically intended for women seeking part‑time daytime work. The role combines proactive security, resident‑focused interaction, safeguarding awareness and a range of operational responsibilities.

Our mission is to protect their mission.

We are recruiting female Care Wardens to work part‑time daytime shifts across all seven days of the week, including weekends.

Applicants must be regularly available for various shifts scheduled between Monday to Sunday: 9:00am to 5:00pm. Individual shifts will be scheduled within these hours and may not cover the full 9:00am to 5:00pm period. This position is not suitable for applicants seeking full‑time hours or evening work. Additional shifts may occasionally be offered depending on operational requirements, but these are not guaranteed.

Key Responsibilities

• Monitoring CCTV and responding to unusual, suspicious or unsafe activity.
• Completing regular patrols and identifying security breaches, hazards, maintenance concerns and other issues.
• Undertaking welfare‑related duties and responding appropriately to concerns regarding residents.

• Responding calmly and professionally to incidents, emergencies, disputes and challenging situations.
• Maintaining appropriate professional boundaries within supported housing environments.
• Keeping the security office and surrounding work areas clean, tidy and free from hazards.

At TriGuard, we pride ourselves on being more than a security provider. We are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of the people we protect.

Our commitment to Securing Excellence is reflected in the quality of our services and the training, guidance and ongoing support provided to our team.
