Security Guard - The Range - Pitsea
(2025-08)
Working at The Range as a security guard has allowed me to build upon skills such as loss prevention, conflict management and communication. I have had to put the training I have had in Personal Safety to the test by safely restraining and preventing thieves from entering and leaving the store. I have robustly dealt with people who are banned and I have assisted in regaining the publics confidence in the store making it a safer place to be.
I spend some time during my shift monitoring the CCTV cameras, this is to ensure that I identify anyone who may be in the store to steal or cause issues. I also monitor them to ensure that I can be of assistance to the staff if they need me. I am used to working longer hours and I am capable of travelling to my place of work via public transport whilst I await my physical driving test.
This has not stopped me being punctual every day.
Security Guard - NHS - Southend Hospital
(2024-03 - 2025-08)
Working at Southend Hospital is challenging and fun. Every day is different, and I get to deal with a lot of different people from all backgrounds. I work a variety of night shifts and day shifts; all are 12 hours long.
I spend some time during my shift monitoring the CCTV cameras in the office, this is to ensure that there are no security breaches and to also monitor each camera carefully in case I need to call for assistance in any part of the hospital. I patrol the hospital grounds, including the car park. This is to ensure the safety of all patients and other people who may be visiting friends or relatives.
When monitoring the car park, I advise members of the public where the best place to park would be, this is especially important at the busier times such as weekends and evenings when doctors surgeries are closed. As a security guard at the hospital I do get involved in assisting nurses and doctors with patients who are very unwell. I assist in carefully detaining people using all the skills I have learnt during my personal safety training.
Nothing I ever do goes beyond what I am taught. I also constantly listen out on my radio in case any of my work colleagues need assistan

In 2023 I was hired by a security company known as Stambridge Security Services and obtained my SIA badge.

Every time I went to work, I ensured that I was carrying out the work exactly how the customer wanted it, I was proud in the work that I was doing, and my customers only ever had good things to say. I was able to build upon all skill sets, I had to cut carpets so that they would fit perfectly inside a room, I used all the correct tools that allowed me to stretch the carpet so that it would reach all corners.
