Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my interest in security opportunities within your organisation. With over 10 years’ experience providing security services across NHS hospitals, supported housing, and a range of public settings, I bring proven skills in safeguarding people, managing incidents, and delivering high-quality customer care.
In my previous role with Lingwood Security Management, I was responsible for maintaining safety and confidentiality across NHS sites, supporting staff in caring for patients, including those with mental health needs. More recently, at Vistech Services, I have worked in assisted accommodation, carrying out patrols, preventing anti-social behaviour, and building positive relationships with vulnerable tenants. These roles have developed my ability to stay calm under pressure, defuse difficult situations, and uphold site policies to protect all involved.
I take pride in being reliable, approachable, and always professional. I understand the importance of detailed incident reporting, following assignment instructions precisely, and working closely with colleagues to maintain a secure environment. I also hold a valid SIA Door Supervisor Licence and am flexible with shifts, including nights and weekends.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience and approach can support your team. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,
Asif Shafi
