Job Overview
Emergency Response Officer – MINI Plant Oxford
Location: MINI Plant Oxford
Salary: £33,109.44 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.
If you want more responsibility, training, and a role where your actions have real impact, this is where you build that future.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Work at a prestigious automotive site – supporting 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
As an Emergency Response Officer, you will play a critical role in keeping people, property, and operations safe.
- 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 staying calm, acting quickly, and making decisions matters.
What We’re Looking For
We are searching 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)

- 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.
