Job Description

Clients in a suburban residential area in Roodepoort pay for fast response, and this crew delivers it. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The site is in Roodepoort; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

The work, day to day

  • Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses
  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
  • Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details
  • Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over

Must-haves

  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)
  • 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
  • Group life cover through the provident fund
  • Regular refresher shooting practice

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): driver's licence and ID copies, service record or reference letter from past security work plus firearm competency certificate.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.
