Security Officer

Be part of one of London's most ambitious regeneration projects.

Olympia is undergoing a £1.3 billion transformation — turning this iconic London landmark into a destination for the remarkable and the extraordinary. Think British Airways ARC (a 3,800-capacity live music venue with AEG Presents), the British Airways Theatre (London's largest purpose-built theatre in almost 50 years), hotels with citizenM and Hyatt Regency, 30 restaurants and bars, a boutique gym with 1

Rebel, and a brand-new co-educational senior school — all alongside Olympia's existing heritage halls.

As a Security Officer at Olympia, you'll be part of a single team trusted to keep the whole estate safe — whether that's welcoming people at the front door, patrolling the public realm and event spaces, or securing the loading bay and logistics operation.

We're looking for experienced, proactive Security Officers who take pride in their work, deliver excellent customer service and can confidently handle the challenges of a busy, high-profile environment.

You’ll receive training to ensure you can perform confidently in any area you're deployed. As part of the role, flexibility is essential, and you'll support the operational needs of the business by working across different areas as required.

• Refer a Friend Scheme — earn £100 for every person you refer who joins us
• Long service and recognition awards celebrating your achievements
• Genuine variety — no two shifts are the same, and you'll build a broader skill set than a single-site role would give you

This role is about more than just security — it's about making a difference across one of London's most exciting developments. All Security Officers at Olympia are recruited under a single role and cross-trained across the estate, so you'll build skills that go well beyond one location or one type of duty.

Depending on the shift, that might mean staffing a reception desk, patrolling event spaces and the public realm, or securing the loading bay and logistics operation. Deployment is decided by the operational needs of the day.

You’ll be expected to take ownership of your duties, maintain high professional standards and use your initiative to identify and report potential risks before they become incidents.

If you’re looking for a single, fixed post with no variation, this role won’t be the right fit. If you enjoy variety, want to build a wider range of experience, and are happy to go where you’re needed on the day, you’ll get far more out of this role than a single-site position could offer.

• Customer Service — delivering a welcoming, professional and helpful experience to visitors, occupiers and contractors while maintaining security standards.
