About the Job
Relationships mean everything to us, and this one is particularly special. You’ll have an important part to play for the
assurance of a safe and secure working environment, proactively reducing risk and exposure to Unipart, its customers and employees
through the effective implementation of Unipart’s security management framework and security standards.
Here at Unipart we don’t just have a way of working, we have The Unipart Way. It allows everyone in our team to pursue their own
personal and professional goals to a world class level, through Unipart's ‘From Gate to Great’ training and development program.
As Head of Security Projects and Compliance you will lead and support all aspects of security-related projects including new
builds, retro-fits and start-ups, in partnership with project and facilities teams.
A key part of the role is proactively collaborating with commercial teams to ensure correct security advice and standards are
provided for all new business opportunities and projects, positioning security as a business enabler and differentiator.
As part of your key responsibilities you’ll:
* Proactively develop collaborative relationships with our Commercial, Bid Management and Project teams to ensure active
engagement on all new business opportunities and projects
* Manage the installation of any security infrastructure upgrades and/or new builds as required
* Ensure all relevant security documented processes and procedures are developed and implemented across your area of
responsibility
* Work collaboratively with the Security Operations team to identify cost efficiencies and resource optimisation on security
related projects
* Safeguard the reputation of the business by ensuring strict adherence to legislative, regulatory, and customer security
requirements are effectively implemented and maintained (E.g. AEO, C-TPAT)
* Support and mentor the Security Operations team to ensure site Security Risk Classification and audit programmes are strictly
adhered to
* Investigate breaches of technical security policies
* Provide security systems training and ongoing support
* Serve as a point of contact for security-system related issues
About You
We’d love you to have the following skills and experience, but please apply if you think you’d be able to perform well in this
role!
* Demonstrable engaging leadership experience in a security risk management position, ideally within the logistics industry
* Excellent knowledge and understanding of Supply Chain Security Solutions (Warehouse and Transport) and operational procedures
* High level of demonstrable knowledge regarding the management and delivery of multiple security projects in complex
environments
* Proven experience in prioritising own workload around tight deadlines in a pressurised environment
* Excellent presentation and communication skills, as well as excellent organisational skills
* Management of physical security systems to ensure effective control measures remain proportionate and cost effective
* Demonstrate in-depth experience of managing external security suppliers
* High level of PC literacy, in particular Microsoft Office and Google suite
Our recruitment and selection process has been developed to ensure that it is consistent, fair and provides equality of
opportunity - all selection decisions are based solely on technical and behavioural competencies. We do not discriminate on the
grounds of race, colour, or nationality, ethnic or national origins, sex, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, marital or
civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, disability, religion or belief, age or any other current or future protected
characteristic as defined in the current Equality Act of England and Wales. As an organisation we also promote an environment
which encourages diversity of characteristics and thought, where you feel included, safe and confident to be the best version of
yourself and do your best work every day.
