Security Assistant

Location: St Ives Bay, Hayle, Cornwall

Hours:  Variable hours - evenings and weekends required

Remuneration: £12.21 per hour; Variable Seasonal Contract (April-October)

Potential accommodation can be provided. 

What we need in a nutshell

This is not your typical Security role. It’s much better! Based at the beautiful location of St Ives Bay you will be keeping our holiday makers secure as well as helping them out when they need assistance. Due to the nature of the role you must hold a full driving licence and be SIA qualified.

Some of the background

We’re not your average holiday company. Our guests come to our UK resorts to experience a world away from their day-to-day. When they are with us, they, enjoy show-stopping entertainment and live in the moment. Our job is to surprise and delight them at every turn.

We need your previous experience in a similar role, where you will join our team and deliver delight by being the person our holidays makers can rely upon, keeping them safe and being there when they need help.

What you’ll be doing

You will be making sure the park is secure and safe, predominantly during the evenings and overnight. You will be a reassuring presence for guests and you’ll be there in an emergency. It’s a varied and exciting job with responsibilities that include:

• Welcoming guests into our park at the entrance and monitoring vehicles that wish to gain access
• Patrolling the park by foot and vehicle, ensuring the perimeters are secure and all is well within the park
• Occasional door duties and checking the passes of guests using the entertainment complex.
• Helping guests with out-of-hours problems and delivering gas on the occasion a guest may have run out.
• Dealing with any conflict/security/service related issues and taking a proactive approach wherever possible.

And who knows what else you may find yourself doing. As long as you’re happy to help even when it’s ‘not your job,’ you’re our sort of person.

One more thing…holidays happen at holiday times, so you will need to work your magic on the majority of bank holidays and weekends too. 

Skills, experience and qualities you’ll need

This is a great role for the right person and we will provide full training and induction, so lots of experience is not as important as the right attitude. The only ‘must-haves’ are

• Full driving licence
• Customer service skills – we want someone who is friendly and cheerful to our guests
• Evidence of problem solving skills
• SIA Qualified

It’s about your values too. We have a can-do, fun loving, people centered ethos here at Away Resorts, which is captured by our holiday heroes’ mantra of Attentive Amazing Lovers – if that’s fired up your curiosity, have a read about it here and decide if it describes you.

Nice to have but not essential

It would be great if you tick some of these boxes too (but we won’t hold it against you if you don’t).

• Experience of working in a holiday park
• First Aid Level 3 (desirable)

Our Promise to You

Holiday Heroes come with all sorts of different super-powers, and we welcome them all!

We embrace diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities. From our investors to our teams we love that everyone comes from different backgrounds, allowing us to grow and inspire each other. We’ll never accept any form of discrimination, and we’ll forever strive not just for our product to be unique but our people too. Afterall, wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same? In short, we want to bring your whole self to work!
