- Full-time VPS 4.1 role, Fixed term (until June 2026)

**About the Opportunity**

The Security Coordinator at State Library Victoria is responsible for providing operational support services to the security function at sites in Melbourne and Ballarat.

Reporting to the Security Operations Manager, this hands-on role includes job patrolling, interacting with patrons and staff, and removal of patrons from site (when required). The role also provides a high level of administrative support, including developing operating procedures and rosters, requiring the use of Outlook, Word and Excel. The Security Coordinator also contributes to the successful delivery of physical and technical security projects.

While this fully on-site position is located at State Library Victoria in the Melbourne CBD, you may find a driver license helpful as there is the need to travel to our Ballarat facilities on occasion. While there is limited evening work, the position does include rostered weekends (typically every third weekend).

You will bring:

- A recognised Security qualification (Private Security Individual Licence, Cert III in Security Operations or similar), or equivalent professional experience.
- Demonstrated experience in security project coordination, including on-floor operations.
- Significant experience with access control and CCTV operations, including security system integration with IT networks.
- Significant interpersonal communication skills, including the ability to appropriately engage with internal and external stakeholders in complex situations.
- Proven experience in writing and implementing operational procedures and event/action plans and the ability to develop and deliver training materials.
