A second income that fits around military life

A Door Supervisor qualification can give serving personnel the opportunity to earn additional income without leaving the Armed Forces. Security work is particularly suited to personnel looking for flexible evening, weekend and event work that can fit around their military commitments.

Working only a few additional shifts each month could provide a significant second income alongside your military salary.

What could you earn?

Based on typical shift opportunities:

2 shifts per week≈ £1,040 – £1,440 /month
3 shifts per week≈ £1,560 – £2,160 /month

Earnings are illustrative and will vary depending on employer, location, hourly/day rate, shift duration and availability of work.

Hit the festival circuit

Make your summer leave pay

Major festivals, sporting events, concerts and outdoor events create huge demand for licensed security personnel throughout the spring and summer. For serving personnel taking annual leave during the festival season, this can provide an opportunity to earn additional income while working at some of the UK's largest events.
