About ARU

ARU is a global university transforming lives through innovative, inclusive, and entrepreneurial education and research. ARU holds a gold award for the quality of its education, awarded through the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF).

ARU’s research institutes and four faculties bridge scientific, technical, and creative fields. We deliver impactful research that tackles pressing issues and makes a real difference to our communities. Our academic excellence has been recognized by the UK’s Higher Education funding bodies, with 16 of our research areas assessed as world-leading. We are the largest provider of Nursing, Midwifery, Health, and Social Care students in the East of England, and among the UK’s leading universities for degree apprenticeship provision, working with hundreds of employers across the UK.

At our ARU Writtle campus, we specialize in animal, environmental, agricultural, and horticultural courses for learners aged 16 to 18, adult learners, undergraduate, and postgraduate levels.


About The Role

This is not a traditional security role; it emphasizes excellent communication skills over previous security experience. We particularly encourage applications from women, who are underrepresented in the team.

The Safety & Security Team is committed to building a diverse team whose role is to create a safe and welcoming environment for students and staff. You will be responsible for ensuring the safety of students, staff, and visitors, while also maintaining the security of buildings and assets. Your daily interactions will involve managing a variety of incidents with problem-solving skills, prioritizing safety and security.

We seek confident individuals with excellent communication skills, preferably with experience working with students or young adults. Knowledge of supporting individuals experiencing mental health difficulties is beneficial. Strong interpersonal skills, the ability to remain calm under pressure, prioritize tasks, and maintain confidentiality are essential. If you're ready for a dynamic, customer-facing role that contributes to our team’s success, we encourage you to apply.

For informal inquiries, contact Nick Morris, Head of Safety & Security, at nick.morris@aru.ac.uk.

We offer an agile working culture, extensive benefits including generous holiday entitlement, pension schemes, training opportunities, travel schemes, and a relocation package. Visit our benefits page for details.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our staff and students. All staff and volunteers are expected to share this commitment. ARU will conduct online searches as part of the recruitment process. All appointments are subject to satisfactory pre-employment checks, including a DBS check. Further information is available at https://www.gov.uk/disclosure-barring-service-check.

This role is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Details about filtering offences are available in the DBS filtering guide.

We value diversity and welcome applications from all community sections. Applicants must be eligible to work in the UK. This post does not qualify for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker Route due to salary criteria.

We are open to flexible working arrangements. The vacancy may close once sufficient applications are received.
