Job Description

When a panic button goes off in a farming district in Mamelodi, you are the one who arrives first. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

The site is in Mamelodi; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over
  • Respond to alarm and panic signals sent by the control room
  • Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
  • Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details
  • Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses

You'll need

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

Nice if you have

  • SAPS, SANDF or reservist background
  • Advanced driving course
  • First-aid Level 2 or 3

On offer

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: driver's licence and ID copies plus firearm competency certificate.
  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 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Mamelodi.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

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