Assistant Shift Manager - Asset Protection

Wynn Al Marjan Island is poised to become the UAE’s first integrated resort, with a planned opening in 2027. The property sits in Ras Al Khaimah, about 50 miles from Dubai International Airport, and will showcase 1,530 rooms and suites along with a theater, a beach club, 22 restaurants and lounges, and a shopping promenade, plus multiple pools, a five‑star spa, a salon and extensive event spaces. The company behind the project is building a destination that blends hospitality, entertainment and gaming in a single, connected property.

Wynn Al Marjan Island is hiring on-site for an experienced Assistant Shift Manager - Asset Protection to join the resort’s security team. The role oversees security operations during shifts across gaming and non-gaming areas and serves as the on‑shift authority for security matters. The right candidate will bring a proven track record of leading large security teams, a calm, decisive leadership style, and a commitment to safeguarding guests, colleagues and assets while upholding policy and high service standards.

In this position, you’ll be trusted to guide the day‑to‑day security posture, balance proactive prevention with rapid response, and coordinate with other departments to keep the property safe and guest experiences uninterrupted. You’ll lead with integrity, exercise sound judgement, and represent the security function with professionalism on every shift.

A day on the asset protection floor

During your shift, you’ll oversee all security operations for gaming and non‑gaming areas and direct the Security Supervisor in how the team is deployed to ensure comprehensive coverage and a strong response capability. You’ll actively supervise posts and oversight, maintaining a safe, controlled environment across the property while ensuring compliance with gaming regulations, internal controls, resort policies and security procedures. You’ll manage access control to restricted and sensitive spaces, validating that entry is authorized for gaming floors, back‑of‑house zones and other controlled locations.

When incidents, disturbances or emergencies arise, you’ll lead the response in partnership with the Security Supervisor and security team, coordinating with the Security Operations Center (SOC), Corporate Investigations and other relevant departments as needed. You’ll monitor both gaming and non‑gaming spaces for security threats, prohibited conduct and indicators that could affect gaming integrity, guest safety or asset protection, escalating significant events to Security leadership and approved stakeholders in a timely fashion.

You’ll guide, coach and supervise the Security Supervisor and the broader team to maintain standards of conduct, appearance and performance. You’ll run shift briefings and handovers to communicate incidents, risks, staffing issues and operational priorities, and you’ll review shift logs and incident records for accuracy and timely submission. You’ll manage guest incidents, disputes, refusals of entry or removals in line with policy, keep security equipment ready, and inspect posts, patrol routes and access points to detect deficiencies. In emergencies, you’ll help execute response, evacuation and business continuity procedures affecting any area of the property, and you’ll collaborate with gaming, hotel, food and beverage, entertainment and other departments to support safe, secure and uninterrupted operations while maintaining guest‑focused service within policy.

How to stand out for the asset protection team

Lead with a summary of your five‑plus years of security leadership in large integrated resort environments, clearly naming how you’ve directed large teams and tight operations on the gaming floor and in back‑of‑house areas.

Show concrete examples of how you directed the Security Supervisor to deploy staff across gaming and non‑gaming spaces, and how you managed access controls and incident responses with the SOC and investigations teams.

Be ready to discuss a real incident you managed from detection through resolution, including how you enforced policy while keeping guest safety and satisfaction front and center.

Prepare a question that probes cross‑department collaboration, for example how the property balances security actions with guest experience, and how the security and operations teams work together with gaming, hotel, F&B and entertainment to keep operations running smoothly.
