Help Deliver Iconic Events at the National Stadium...

Wembley Stadium is one of the most recognisable venues in world sport and entertainment. Home to the England national teams and host to some of the biggest events in the calendar, it's a unique platform for professionals who want to operate at the highest level.

We're now hiring a Senior Deputy Safety Officer to help lead the delivery of world-class events with an uncompromising focus on safety, operations and fan experience.

The impact you'll make

Reporting to the Stadium Safety Officer, you'll lead operational planning and delivery of crowd safety across a wide range of events, from international football and major cup finals to concerts, NFL, and global boxing nights. You'll act as Lead Safety Officer when required and play a key role in developing and implementing safety protocols, crowd strategies and stadium SOPs.

You'll work closely with the local authority, SGSA, emergency services, and counter-terrorism teams. Internally, you'll support the training and recruitment arm of the department and help grow capability and resilience across the wider team. This is a hands-on role with strategic visibility and real leadership responsibility — one that will shape the future of events at Wembley.

Naturally, working on some of the biggest football matches, global concerts and major sporting events means you'll need to have a flexible approach to working evenings and weekends.

Your skills and experience

• NVQ Level 4 in Spectator Safety (essential)
• Safety Officer or Deputy Safety Officer experience in large-scale sporting venues (circa 40,000 + desirable)
• Proven leadership across crowd safety operations in sport and/or live events.
• Strong understanding of event safety legislation, planning, and compliance.
• Skilled at managing diverse event teams and building strong external partnerships.
• Experience supporting recruitment or training programmes is a plus.
• Calm under pressure, proactive, values-driven and commercially aware.
• Experience of alternative use of sports grounds and other event environments is desirable.

What's in it for you?

This is a predominantly on-site role with access to an outstanding working environment beneath the arch of Wembley Stadium. You'll benefit from:

• Free, nutritious lunches every day at Wembley.
• Free on-site parking and access to an on-site gym.
• Private medical cover and a contributory pension scheme.
• 25 days' holiday, a 'Thank You' day, volunteering days.
• Access to Wembley event day tickets.
• Support for ongoing development and career growth.
