Job Description

Residents and staff at an industrial park in Epping need to feel safe when they arrive; that is your job. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

This post is in Epping (Western Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

What you'll actually do

  • Watch for loitering, broken fencing and open doors during night patrols
  • Direct traffic and parking during school drop-off or big events
  • Call the armed response or SAPS number from the call list when needed
  • Hand out and collect contractor access cards
  • Check visitors' IDs and capture them on the visitor app or in the gate register

You'll need

  • Physically fit for foot patrols
  • Speaks and writes basic English
  • Able to work 12-hour day and night shifts, including weekends
  • PSIRA registration at Grade C or higher, paid up to date

Nice if you have

  • Firefighting or evacuation training
  • A Code 8 licence for vehicle patrols

On offer

  • Uniform, boots and winter jacket issued
  • Chance to be upgraded to Grade B with training
  • Paid night-shift allowance under the security sector rules

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Epping really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified copy of your ID plus Grade 10 or matric certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Epping.

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.

How to stand out

  • Make sure your PSIRA fees are paid. A lapsed registration gets your CV thrown out, even if you have years of experience.
  • Put your PSIRA number and grade right under your name. Recruiters check it on the PSIRA system before they even phone you.
