Job Description

Officers look to you on every shift at a retail portfolio in Mthatha. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Mthatha; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What you'll actually do

  • Check that PSIRA registrations of staff on site are current
  • Meet the client weekly on security concerns
  • Order and issue uniform, radios and torches
  • Post officers when the shift changes over and cover no-shows
  • Investigate incidents and write reports for the client

You'll need

  • Valid Code 8 licence and willing to drive between sites
  • Firm with staff but fair and consistent
  • Available after hours for emergencies
  • At least 3 years in security, including 1 as a supervisor
  • Confident writer of incident reports and rosters
  • PSIRA Grade B (Grade A for area manager posts)

Nice if you have

  • Own reliable vehicle
  • Computer skills for rosters in Excel or a workforce app

On offer

  • Company vehicle or car allowance on area roles
  • Provident fund and funeral cover
  • Cellphone allowance
  • Management training for growth to operations manager

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): PSIRA Grade B certificate, references from security managers you worked under plus supervision or labour relations certificates.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

  • If you have been upgraded through the grades, show the progression. It proves you grew on the job.
  • Mention how you handled absenteeism or roster gaps. It is the biggest daily headache for security companies.
