About the Role
Following the opening of the University's new state-of-the-art City Campus, we are looking for a Campus Safety and Security Supervisor to ensure the safety of the staff, students, and visitors of our sites.
The Campus Safety and Security Supervisor will be expected to operate within a framework of established policies and procedures to ensure the safety of the patrons and the security of the campuses and its facilities.
The key position responsibilities of the Campus Safety and Security Supervisor will include (but are not limited to):

Overseeing and supervising the daily operations of security staff and contracted staff, ensuring all security protocols and procedures are followed.
Providing training and support to security staff, ensuring they are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to perform their duties effectively.
Initiating and undertaking regular safety audits and risk assessments, identifying potential security vulnerabilities and implementing corrective actions in collaboration with the Safety & Security Manager.
Enforcing and ensuring proper functionality of all university security protocols, including card access, CCTV, key control, patrols, and surveillance.
Establishing and maintaining strong working relationships with university internal stakeholders, external security groups, emergency services, and law enforcement agencies.

This position may require working outside of normal hours, participating in a rostered on-call arrangement, or serving as an Emergency Control Coordinator for the University.
About You
The successful candidate will need to have experience in supervising and overseeing security officers and operations. A vital part of the role will be supervising, training, and supporting the on-campus security staff, ensuring they are informed and educated at a high-enough level to follow all security protocols and procedures.
This position will report to the Campus Safety and Security Manager located at the Bedford Park campus, so the successful candidate will need to be someone who is autonomous and ready to make the role their own; willing to be the face of security at our Campuses and ensure its smooth operation on a day-to-day basis. A key aspect of delivering these outcomes will be the ability to establish and maintain strong working relationships with university internal stakeholders, external security groups, emergency services, and law enforcement agencies. This will require a 'people person' with excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and an ability to operate well under pressure.
Please refer to the position description for a complete list of the key position capabilities.
