About the Role

We are looking for professional, observant and highly motivated Store Detectives to join our retail security team.

Carry out lawful and professional apprehensions where appropriate and in line with company procedures.
Produce detailed and accurate incident reports.
Complete all reports using company reporting systems.
Recover stolen stock where possible.
Work closely with store management and local police.
Maintain a visible intelligence presence whilst remaining covert.
Provide excellent customer service when required.
Ensure all actions comply with company policies, ASCONE principles, the Criminal Law Act, PACE, Human Rights legislation and relevant use of force guidance.

What We're Looking For

Essential

Valid Front Line SIA Door Supervisor or Security Guard Licence.
Excellent observation and communication skills.
Ability to remain calm in challenging situations.
Professional appearance and conduct.
Ability to write accurate reports.
Good decision-making skills.
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
Flexible to work retail hours, including weekends.

Desirable

Previous Store Detective or Loss Prevention experience.

What We Offer

Ongoing training and development.
Opportunity to work within one of the UK's leading retail security teams.
Career progression opportunities.
Uniform allowance (where applicable).
Supportive management team.
Flexible working patterns.

Important Information

This is a covert security role, meaning officers work in plain clothes and blend naturally with customers while carrying out surveillance duties. Successful applicants must demonstrate professionalism, integrity, and excellent judgement at all times.

Due to the nature of the role, applicants will be subject to employment screening and must hold a valid SIA licence before commencing employment.
