We call ourselves The Social House, as we aim to be a Melting Pot for getting people together, and because our way of doing things is perhaps just a little more personable and informal than some. And a touch off-beat: unusual cuisines; unexpected events; untypical meetings; unorthodox interiors; unconventional bedrooms; uncommon people.

As our Security Officer, you will:

• Maintain a safe and secure environment for guests, staff and visitors.
• Respond promptly and professionally to security incidents and emergencies.
• Complete clear, accurate and timely incident reports.
• Control access to restricted areas and sensitive locations.
• Conduct scheduled security patrols across the property and identify potential risks.
• Monitor CCTV and identify, investigate and report suspicious or unusual activity.
• Maintain proper control and accountability of master, emergency and restricted area keys.
• Safeguard hotel property, equipment and guest belongings.
• Ensure lost and found items are properly handled, recorded and secured.
• Support the effective response to fire, medical, evacuation and other emergencies.
• Identify and promptly report safety and security hazards.
• Monitor parking areas, loading zones and vehicle movements.
• Ensure visitors, contractors and service providers comply with hotel access procedures.
• Monitor staff adherence to established hotel security procedures.
• Work closely with Front Office, Food & Beverage, Housekeeping, Engineering, Finance and other departments to maintain a secure operating environment.
• Protect sensitive guest, staff and hotel information.
• Provide clear and accurate security handovers between shifts.
• Ensure security equipment is operational and promptly report defects.
• Report to work on time and remain alert, attentive and ready throughout the shift.
• Participate actively in security, emergency response and guest service training.
