Loss Prevention Officer (Distribution Centre)

You'll catch shoplifting and stock losses at a retail distribution centre in Brits before they cost jobs. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

You'll report in Brits. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Help with stock counts and point out loss hot-spots
• Attend court as a witness when a case goes to trial
• Tag high-value stock and check security tags at the doors
• Detain suspects lawfully and call SAPS, then write a statement

• Knowledge of lawful arrest and search under the Criminal Procedure Act
• Available for retail hours including month-end weekends
• Matric or equivalent NQF Level 4
