About Us

London sets the perfect stage for The Standard's first European flagship and since opening in 2019, The Standard, London has firmly established itself as one of the capital's most dynamic lifestyle hotels.

Set in King's Cross within the hotel's iconic brutalist building, The Standard brings its design-led, culture-driven, activation-heavy philosophy to the heart of the city. With 266 guestrooms ranging from cosy rooms to terraced suites overlooking St Pancras, alongside a constant programme of cultural happenings, the hotel has become both a neighbourhood fixture and an international destination.

Our restaurants, bars and rooftop terraces are legendary. From Isla's Garden setting to Double Standard's vibrant energy, Decimo's skyline dining and Sweeties' late-night scene, our venues create a high-volume, multi-outlet operation that runs from early morning through to late night. Together, these spaces position The Standard, London as one of the city's most exciting destinations for events, celebrations and brand experiences.

We are defined by our richness of personality, diversity of background and lifestyle and are now looking for a Job Title who will embody our "Anything but Standard" ethos. As part of Hyatt, we're committed to creating an environment where our people feel they belong, can grow, thrive and do their best work.

When the city winds down, we're just getting started.

As our Nightlife Security Supervisor, you'll lead from the front, taking ownership of the safety, security and smooth operation of some of London's most exciting late-night spaces. From our bars and restaurants to our terraces and public areas, you'll be a highly visible presence, overseeing a team of Nightlife Security Officers while ensuring guests enjoy a safe, welcoming and unmistakably Standard experience. Hospitality comes first; security is how you make it possible.

This is more than managing the door. As Nightlife Security Supervisor, you'll coordinate nightly operations, support incident management, oversee venue capacities, guide emergency procedures, maintain strong relationships across the hotel, and act as a key link between the operational team and Security leadership. Whether you're briefing your team, responding to an incident, liaising with external agencies, or ensuring standards are being upheld across the property, you'll combine sound judgement, professionalism and a cool head to keep the night running seamlessly.

You'll be passionate about developing people and creating a culture where safety, service and teamwork go hand in hand. With a hands-on leadership style, you'll inspire your team to deliver the highest standards of presentation, professionalism and guest engagement, helping shape a security operation that is proactive, modern and anything but Standard.

Do you have what it takes to be our Nightlife Security Supervisor?

While we take our guests' safety seriously, we don't take ourselves too seriously. We're looking for a confident leader with proven experience in nightlife security, who can balance operational excellence with exceptional guest service.

  • Previous experience in a Security Team Leader, Supervisor or similar leadership role within a luxury lifestyle hotel, private members' club, or high-volume nightlife venue.
  • Strong experience working in late-night hospitality, including venue and door supervision.
  • A natural leader who can motivate, coach and develop high-performing security teams.
