Job Description

Shrinkage hurts every electronics store; in Pretoria East, you would be the one tracking it down. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

This post is Pretoria East-based, with most of your time spent at an electronics store. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What you'll actually do

  • Tag high-value stock and check security tags at the doors
  • Share trends with the store manager each week
  • Record every incident with photos, times and value of goods
  • Review CCTV footage to confirm suspected theft
  • Attend court as a witness when a case goes to trial

What you need

  • Discreet, observant and honest
  • Matric or equivalent NQF Level 4
  • Available for retail hours including month-end weekends
  • Good report writing
  • PSIRA registration, Grade C at least
  • Able to handle confrontation calmly

On offer

  • Retail trading hours, no night shift in most stores
  • Plain clothes work (no uniform in detective roles)
  • Staff discount at the retailer

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Pretoria East really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: PSIRA certificate and ID copy, matric certificate plus loss prevention or investigation course certificates.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.
