Receiving Bay Security Checker

Retail in Germiston runs on thin margins, and a building-supplies store needs someone guarding its stock. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

This post is Germiston-based, with most of your time spent at a building-supplies store.

• Tag high-value stock and check security tags at the doors
• Record every incident with photos, times and value of goods
• Attend court as a witness when a case goes to trial
• Search staff bags at exit points according to store policy
• Help with stock counts and point out loss hot-spots

• Matric or equivalent NQF Level 4
• Discreet, observant and honest
• PSIRA registration, Grade C at least
• Good report writing
• Available for retail hours including month-end weekends

• Retail loss prevention course
• Understanding of stock systems and shrinkage reports

• Retail trading hours, no night shift in most stores
• Staff discount at the retailer
• Monthly recovery incentives
• Plain clothes work (no uniform in detective roles)

• Keep your appearance low-key for the interview. Detectives need to blend in with shoppers.
• Give numbers on your CV: how many cases you opened, how many led to arrests. Retail security managers trust results.
