Job Description

Looking for a Security Role with Real Purpose?

If you’re an experienced Security Officer or a people-focused professional looking for more than traditional guarding duties, this could be one of the most rewarding opportunities available.

CONSTANT is partnering with a leading Student Accommodation provider to deliver a modern, community focused approach to safety and wellbeing - centred around student support, engagement, and creating a safe living environment for students from around the world.

Part-time opportunities are available, consisting of night shifts only (1830hrs – 0400hrs), rotating across the week including weekdays and weekends. These positions are offered on a PPT (Permanent Part-Time) employment basis, providing consistent night shift hours across multiple locations. We are only looking for people that are able to work on a rotating roster.

Due to the community-focused nature of this role, applicants with experience in people-supporting environments will be highly regarded. This includes candidates with backgrounds in areas such as student accommodation, residential services, community support, disability support, aged care, healthcare, hospitals, mental health support, youth services, education, hospitality, or other roles involving direct engagement, care, welfare, or assistance to individuals.

Candidates who demonstrate strong interpersonal skills, empathy, professionalism, and the ability to support individuals in a residential environment will be prioritised during the selection process.
