Job Overview

Emergency Response Officer – MINI Plant Oxford

Location: MINI Plant Oxford

Salary: £33,.44 per annum (based on 4 on 4 off)

Hours: 12‑hour shifts (days, nights & weekends – average 42 hours per week)

Overtime: Regular overtime available

Step Into a Role That Goes Beyond Security

Take your SIA career further with Mitie’s Emergency Response Team at the home of MINI production in Oxford. This is not a standard guarding role. You will be part of a multi‑skilled, highly trained team responsible for emergency response, fire safety, environmental incidents, and advanced first aid within a fast‑paced, high‑profile manufacturing environment.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work at a prestigious automotive site – support a globally recognised brand
  • Gain specialist training – develop skills across fire response, incident management, and advanced first aid
  • Earn recognised qualifications – build a career, not just a job
  • Be part of an elite team – work alongside professionals who take pride in high standards
  • Clear progression opportunities – open pathways across security, fire, and emergency response roles
  • Excellent earning potential – competitive salary with consistent overtime opportunities

Main Duties

Your Role

As an Emergency Response Officer, you will play a critical role in keeping people, property and operations safe.

You will:

  • Provide a high‑visibility, proactive security presence across the site
  • Respond rapidly and effectively to fire alarms, medical incidents and environmental emergencies
  • Support and actively contribute to the Emergency Response Team, including training and daily planning
  • Maintain and inspect specialist emergency equipment to operational standards
  • Conduct internal and external patrols, searches and incident reporting
  • Ensure compliance with health, safety, environmental and security procedures

This is a role where no two days are the same, and where your ability to stay calm, act quickly and make decisions matters.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for professional, motivated individuals who want to step into a more demanding and rewarding role.

Essential

  • Full, clean UK driving licence
  • Valid SIA Front Line Licence (or willingness to obtain – fully funded)
  • Ability to pass a medical and fitness assessment (including breathing apparatus)
  • Strong communication skills and professional approach
  • Flexible to work days, nights and weekends
  • Ability to pass security vetting and random drug/alcohol testing
  • Basic to intermediate IT skills

Desirable

  • FREC 3 (First Response Emergency Care) qualification

Please note: Due to breathing apparatus requirements, candidates must be clean‑shaven or maintain a tightly trimmed goatee‑style beard for safety compliance.

Build a Career That Makes a Difference

If you have your SIA licence, a strong work ethic, and the ambition to develop into a multi‑skilled emergency response professional, this is a genuine opportunity to elevate your career.

Join Mitie’s Emergency Response Team and take on a role where your actions protect people, support critical operations and make a real difference every day.
