Rapid Response Officer (Farm Security)

You'll answer alarms across a mixed-use neighbourhood in George in a marked vehicle, armed and ready. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in George; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Write detailed incident reports on the tablet or in the vehicle logbook
• Do vehicle checks: tyres, fuel, lights and siren
• Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
• Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses
• Respond to alarm and panic signals sent by the control room
• Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
• Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over

• SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)
• Clean criminal record and no pending cases
• Calm under pressure and physically fit
• PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course

• Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts

• Response vehicle and firearm provided
• Group life cover through the provident fund
• Danger and night allowances
• Regular refresher shooting practice

• Mention the areas you know well. Companies prefer officers who can find addresses fast without a GPS.
• Bring the originals of your certificates to the interview. Armed companies verify them before a shooting test.
