  • Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details

Must-haves

  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving
  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course

  • Regular refresher shooting practice

  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): driver's licence and ID copies, service record or reference letter from past security work 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 9 working days, usually by phone.

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.
