Unfortunately, recruitment scams and fraudulent job offers are becoming increasingly common, with individuals posing as legitimate recruiters and organisations to obtain personal information or money from job seekers. We want to help you recognise genuine communications from Securitas and stay protected throughout the application process.
How to identify genuine Securitas communications
When communicating with Securitas, you can expect correspondence from:
- A verified Securitas email address, for example: Jane.Doe@securitas.uk.com
- Our official recruitment platform, SmartRecruiters
- Members of our Talent Acquisition team may call you, if you would like to verify whether you are speaking with a member of our team, please call 0800716586 and select option 6.
Warning signs of recruitment scams
Be cautious if you receive communications that:
- Request payment of any kind
- Ask you to purchase your own uniform, equipment or training materials
- Request bank details or sensitive personal information before a formal offer of employment has been made
- Come from unofficial email addresses, social media accounts or messaging platforms
- Create pressure for immediate action without following a formal recruitment process
Important to remember
Securitas will never ask candidates to pay for uniforms, training, onboarding, equipment, vetting checks, security clearances or employment opportunities.
If you receive any communication claiming to be from Securitas and are unsure of its authenticity, please contact our Talent Acquisition team directly at RecruitmentEnquiries@securitas.uk.com before taking any action.
Your safety matters to us from the moment you apply and remains our priority throughout your journey with Securitas.
