Job Description

Serious work for a serious officer: armed response across a farming district in Sandton. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

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

The work, day to day

  • Respond to alarm and panic signals sent by the control room
  • Visit clients for key-holder checks and open-up requests
  • Do vehicle checks: tyres, fuel, lights and siren
  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over
  • Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs

You'll need

  • Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving
  • At least 2 years in guarding or response
  • PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course
  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases

Helpful, not essential

  • Advanced driving course
  • Knowledge of the local streets and sectors

What you get

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): firearm competency certificate plus PSIRA registration certificate showing armed response.
  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 6 working days.
