CCTV & Incident Monitoring Coordinator

Reference: PTA000299-MG-1

Working Hours: 18:00 – 06:00, night shift (3 shifts on, 2 shifts off) Working Arrangement: Office-based Start Date: September / October 2026 Please note:  The salaries offered by our clients are determined in accordance with market standards, while considering the candidate's qualifications, skills, and level of experience. Job Overview: Our client is looking for a reliable, responsible and observant CCTV & Incident Monitoring Coordinator to work in their private control room during the night shift. The control room monitors approximately 600 CCTV cameras using AI-supported monitoring technology. The system identifies activity involving people or vehicles and generates alarms requiring attention. The successful candidate will review and assess alarm activations, check the relevant CCTV footage and determine whether the activity appears to be normal/expected activity or requires further investigation. Where potentially unauthorised or suspicious activity is identified, the candidate will follow the established escalation procedure, including contacting the relevant manager and the appointed security service provider to arrange an appropriate response. This is an office-based monitoring and coordination position and is not a traditional security guarding or patrolling role. The client is looking for someone who is accurate, calm, trustworthy, process-driven and able to exercise sound judgement. The ideal candidate will be down-to-earth, respectful, dependable and mature in their approach, with good manners, strong personal integrity and the ability to remain focused during a night shift. Previous security or control room experience will be advantageous, but the client is open to candidates from other backgrounds where they can demonstrate reliability, attention to detail, good judgement, computer literacy and the ability to follow established processes.
