Job Description

You'll control who comes in and out of a construction yard in Alberton, and log every visitor properly. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

Location: Alberton, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

The work, day to day

  • Watch for loitering, broken fencing and open doors during night patrols
  • Check visitors' IDs and capture them on the visitor app or in the gate register
  • Write every incident and shift change in the occurrence book (OB)
  • Search vehicles and bags leaving the site when company policy requires it
  • Test the panic button and radio when you come on duty

Must-haves

  • Clean criminal record
  • Able to work 12-hour day and night shifts, including weekends
  • Grade 10 minimum; matric preferred
  • PSIRA registration at Grade C or higher, paid up to date
  • Clear, neat handwriting for the OB and registers

Nice if you have

  • Firefighting or evacuation training
  • A Code 8 licence for vehicle patrols
  • Experience on estate access apps or biometric readers

What you get

  • Stable long-term site contracts
  • Uniform, boots and winter jacket issued
  • Chance to be upgraded to Grade B with training

How to stand out
