Armed Reaction Officer (Business Parks) – Permanent

You'll answer alarms across a farming district in Boksburg in a marked vehicle, armed and ready. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

The site is in Boksburg; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
• Respond to alarm and panic signals sent by the control room
• Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
• Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details
• Do vehicle checks: tyres, fuel, lights and siren
• Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over
• Check the firearm in and out of the safe at shift start and end

• SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)
• Calm under pressure and physically fit
• PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course
• At least 2 years in guarding or response

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

• Put your firearm competency and armed response course at the top. Without both, the CV is not read further.
• Bring the originals of your certificates to the interview. Armed companies verify them before a shooting test.
