Job Description

Are you a reliable, security-conscious individual seeking a dynamic Night Porter role in the heart of London? StaffDirect is partnering with a prestigious client in the Westminster SW1 area to find a dedicated professional to ensure the smooth and secure operation of their facility during the night shift. This is a critical front-of-house position in a high-profile location, offering an immediate start for the right candidate. Whether you are looking for a stepping stone into the hospitality sector, need flexible hours, or are seeking a stable temporary position with the potential to become permanent, this role provides a fantastic opportunity.

Our client operates a busy, multi-use building requiring vigilant oversight outside of standard business hours. As the Night Porter, you will be the face of the establishment during the night, responsible for security, guest assistance, and basic maintenance. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a quieter, self-directed environment but remains alert and professional at all times. By applying through StaffDirect, you gain access to our extensive network of immediate start jobs across London, including roles for Van Drivers, Commis Chefs, and skilled Joiners. We streamline the process, connecting you directly with employers who value prompt and professional staffing solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the primary point of contact for residents, guests, and emergency services during the night, providing a professional and courteous service.
• Conduct regular security patrols of the building interior and perimeter, monitoring CCTV systems and ensuring all access points are secure.
• Manage the reception desk, handling late check-ins/check-outs, receiving parcels, and taking detailed messages for day staff.
• Perform light maintenance and porterage duties, including setting up meeting rooms, moving furniture, and reporting any faults or hazards.
• Ensure the cleanliness and tidiness of all public areas, including the lobby, corridors, and communal spaces, undertaking light cleaning as required.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience in a similar Night Porter, security, or front-of-house role, preferably within a hotel, residential building, or corporate facility.
• Exceptional awareness and a strong sense of responsibility for security and safety protocols.
• Excellent communication and customer service skills, with the ability to remain calm and professional under pressure.
• A reliable, punctual, and trustworthy individual who can work independently through the night with minimal supervision.

Salary & Benefits

We believe in offering fair and attractive packages that reflect your experience and the requirements of the role. For this Night Porter position in Westminster SW1, we offer a highly competitive hourly rate, paid weekly via our efficient payroll system. The exact figure will be discussed during your registration and is dependent on your prior experience in similar security or hospitality roles. In addition to the pay, you will benefit from:

• Weekly Pay: Get paid reliably every week, without delay.
• Holiday Pay Accrual: Build up paid holiday entitlement in line with statutory requirements.
• Pension Scheme: Option to enrol in a workplace pension scheme.
• Career Pathway: This temporary role has a clear temp-to-perm potential for a candidate who excels. It can be a gateway to more permanent positions within the client's organisation or through StaffDirect.
• Flexible Assignments: While this role is ongoing, working with StaffDirect gives you access to a wide variety of other shifts. If your circumstances change, we can help you find other immediate start work, be it in hospitality, as a Van Driver, or in warehouse operations.
