About this role

Join Our Security Team

University of Staffordshire is seeking dedicated, community-minded and proactive Campus Security Officers to join our Security Team on a full-time night shift rota.

In September 2026, we will open our brand-new Student Village – a modern, high-quality accommodation development located alongside our Stoke campus. This exciting new addition will provide students with a safe, supportive and welcoming place to live, and you could play a key role in shaping that experience from day one.

This is much more than a traditional security role. You'll be part of a team that helps create a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment for students, staff and visitors. The role is varied, active and physically demanding, making it ideal for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, making sound decisions and providing excellent customer service.
