EXPERIENCE

SECURITY OFFICER- STANSTED AIRPORT – LONDON, UK

Aug 2005 – October 2014

Working in one of the UK’s biggest and busiest airports for almost 10 years, I am fully

experienced and trained in all aspects of airport security (all premises including

terminal, car park, outside areas).

My main duties at Stansted was access control, security checks, driving around the

airport doing perimeter patrols of the terminal, body-searching, bag-screening and x-

ray screening, for which I have a high level of competence.

My customer services skills are impeccable as working in the 4th busiest airports in the

UK that serves 17.5 million passengers per year, I was in daily contact with people from

all countries and origins, with different problems and issues that, often, required a quick

but accurate assistance while maintaining cultural sensitivities.

On a daily basis I was dealing with additional requirements which spanned anything

from special assistance, (wheelchair assistance, child and family care and general

enquiries) to emergency assistance (security breaches, health issues or other kinds of

hazards).

I have also been trained in manual handling, fire and evacuation procedures, as well

as numerous contingency plans regarding airport safety procedures.

and newspaper import/export and distribution.

I am skilled in all aspects of warehouse work, including goods receipt, picking and

packing and goods dispatch. I am also trained to use a fork-lift truck for use of loading

and unloading vehicles. My duties involved storing and re-locating and cataloguing

the stock, truck arrival and departures coordination in company premises.

Working for such a big company, it was important to be adaptable, hardworking and

have good organizational skills with a problem solving attitude.

experience in total within the warehouse and logistic field).
