Job Description

When a panic button goes off in a business park in Centurion, you are the one who arrives first. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

Home base is a business park on the Centurion side of Gauteng. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What you'll actually do

  • Do vehicle checks: tyres, fuel, lights and siren
  • Check the firearm in and out of the safe at shift start and end
  • Write detailed incident reports on the tablet or in the vehicle logbook
  • Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
  • Visit clients for key-holder checks and open-up requests
  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates

What you need

  • Calm under pressure and physically fit
  • Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving
  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)

What you get

  • Response vehicle and firearm provided
  • Regular refresher shooting practice
  • Danger and night allowances

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 plus driver's licence and ID copies.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.
