Do you want to work in a place where your team values you? Do you have a positive attitude and the desire to learn and succeed?
This is a great opportunity for someone with a high level of integrity to develop within Loomis UK - one of the market leaders in our industry. We are an organisation with a strong national presence and are part of the Loomis Group - a worldwide security sector leader.
Who are we?
Loomis UK is a cash handling company, helping manage the public flow of cash in society. From secure money safes to intelligent smart safes, cash in transit and cash processing, Loomis supports businesses throughout the UK with crucial cash and coin collection and delivery services, along with ATM management and replenishment service.
The role
As a Loomis Control Room Operative, you will coordinate and monitor daily transport routes using planning and tracking tools, ensuring compliance with operational and legislative requirements. You’ll liaise closely with both internal teams and external partners to support service delivery and maintain high standards of efficiency and security. Responsibilities also include managing vehicle tracking, issuing equipment and access codes, processing administrative documentation, and maintaining accurate records. Additionally, you'll be responsible for opening and closing the branch, overseeing control room security, reporting incidents.
While this is primarily a branch-based role, you may occasionally be required to support airside operations at Heathrow or Gatwick, covering driver shortages and undertaking road duties when necessary. Therefore, an existing HGV licence is highly desirable.
If you're a logical thinker, safety-conscious, and a strong team player, this role could be a great fit for you!
Please
About you
You’ll be a confident communicator with strong interpersonal skills, capable of working independently as well as part of a close-knit team. With a logical approach to problem-solving, you’re comfortable managing change in a fast-paced environment and can prioritise tasks effectively to meet tight deadlines. Your time management and organisational skills are second to none, and you're confident using IT systems to plan, monitor, and report on operational activity.
Ideally, you’ll bring knowledge of transport legislation and may have previous experience in roles such as Driver Guard, Vault Operative, or within a related industry. A full UK driving licence is essential, and while an HGV licence and SIA accreditation are advantageous, we can support you in achieving the latter if not already held.
We also have some specific security criteria that you will need to meet:
1. You must be able to pass criminal record, personal credit and ID checks
2. You must have verifiable 10-year employment/unemployment/educational history
3. You must have a current UK driving licence
4. You must be approved to attain an SIA licence. Joining us with an existing CVIT SIA licence will automatically qualify you for the post-probation rate of pay, as well as a £1,000 bonus. If you don’t hold one already, you will be required to attain a licence (paid for by us) during your probation period
In return we offer the following:
5. 24 days holiday per year (excluding bank holidays)
6. A 12-week induction and training programme (The Loomis Way)
7. Life Assurance
8. Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
9. A safe and supportive culture
10. Full uniform and PPE
11. MyRewards – over 3000 discounts for everyday life
12. Pension scheme
13. Cycle to Work scheme
14. Progression opportunities
You will receive the very best in procedural security training and support.
