We have a brand-new opportunity for a Senior Security Consultant to join our team based in London or Manchester. The Hoare Lea security engineering team includes chartered engineers and professionally registered security professionals with an incredible wealth of experience across many industry sectors. We are a team of accredited experts, including Principal Members of the Register of Security Engineers and Specialists (RSES) and Members of the Security Institute. In an area where strong opinions are rife, we focus on objective, scientific and evidence-based solutions. We work on many prestigious built environment projects, focused on delivering security strategies and technical designs aligned to the RIBA plan of work to support the aspirations of our clients. Today's world requires security to be considered an intrinsic part of a development and not an afterthought or add-on. We have the ability to design buildings so they're as secure as possible right from the concept stage.

• Managing multiple projects and tasks and contributing to the delivery of large, complex projects.
• Leading and mentoring junior security engineers and specialists
• Supporting senior management by generating management information, contributing to quality assurance and checking and approving work done by the team.
• Assisting with and leading client and stakeholder engagement for technical security design including attending client meetings and delivering presentations when required.
• Liaising and developing relationships with wider design teams and external security stakeholders to integrate and coordinate security design requirements
• Developing a good understanding of project security threat and risk assessments in order to fully understand the basis of design.
• Proactively participating as part of the Hoare Lea security engineering team in developing approaches to project delivery to support continued team growth.
  
  To be successful in this role you'll need:
• Degree in engineering or similar (a master's or other relevant postgraduate qualification is an advantage).
• Working knowledge of engineering drawing and modelling tools such as CAD and REVIT.
• Understanding of the RIBA Plan of Work.
• Previous experience in a role within the built environment.
• Technical understanding of electronic security systems.
• Excellent communication skills (written and oral).
• Ability to work in a fast-paced and demanding environment with tight deadlines.
• Ability to work in a team environment and independently.
• Achieve Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) before appointment and National Security Vetting at, as a minimum, SC level when in post.
