What your day could look like

As a Fire Safety and Security Supervisor, you'll play a vital role in keeping people safe and supported across a busy hospital environment. From guiding teams through complex situations to strengthening prevention and response capability, your expertise helps create confidence and security at every level.

Every day, you'll contribute by:

  • Leading and coaching a security team to deliver consistent, high-quality safety outcomes
  • Coordinating responses to incidents and risks, including de-escalation and emergency situations
  • Strengthening safety systems through proactive inspections, risk assessments and improvements
  • Collaborating with staff and emergency services to ensure effective, calm and coordinated responses

Let's talk about you!

You're a calm, confident leader who brings clarity in high-pressure moments and builds trust with those around you. You lead with compassion, act with integrity, and treat every person with dignity. Whether guiding your team through a critical incident or improving processes behind the scenes, you take pride in making environments safer and more responsive. You're not just maintaining standards—you're raising them.

Here's what will help you thrive in this role:

  • Experience in fire safety, security operations or emergency response environments
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to guide teams through complex situations
  • Clear communication and sound judgement under pressure
  • Ability to assess risk, prioritise effectively and adapt in dynamic environments

You'll stand out from the crowd if you have experience in healthcare or large, complex sites and/or training in incident management or emergency response.

Above all, you'll bring the values we live by: compassion, integrity, dignity, innovation and courage - ensuring safety is always delivered with care and respect.
