Security Officer , Per Diem

Campus Security Officers are responsible for ensuring the comfort, safety, and security of students, faculty, staff, and visitors at the University of New England. Security Officers help maintain a safe environment and minimize the potential for property loss or damage by conducting high‑visibility patrols on foot and in University‑owned vehicles, monitoring CCTV equipment, and overseeing radio communications. Officers provide a wide variety of services to the campus community and are expected to proactively seek opportunities to deliver exceptional customer service.

Security Officers enforce the University of New England rules and regulations, the Office of Student Resolutions Conduct Code, and coordinate with law enforcement in enforcing state statutes. Security Officers have a critical role as first responders to campus emergencies and critical incidents such as active threat situations, bomb threats and mental health emergencies. Security Officers respond to disturbances and mitigate disruptive conduct and coordinate with local, county and state agencies as necessary.

Security Officers recognize potential safety concerns and take measures to mitigate these concerns.

Security Officers day‑to‑day activities include routine patrols of campus property, completing daily building openings and closings, and parking enforcement.
