Job Description

When a panic button goes off in a suburban residential area in Boksburg, you are the one who arrives first. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is Boksburg-based, with most of your time spent at a suburban residential area. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Visit clients for key-holder checks and open-up requests
  • Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details
  • Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses
  • Do vehicle checks: tyres, fuel, lights and siren
  • Write detailed incident reports on the tablet or in the vehicle logbook
  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over
  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates

You'll need

  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts
  • PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course
  • At least 2 years in guarding or response
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving

What's in it for you

  • Danger and night allowances
  • Regular refresher shooting practice
  • Group life cover through the provident fund
  • Response vehicle and firearm provided

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): service record or reference letter from past security work, driver's licence and ID copies plus firearm competency certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 working days, usually by phone.
