Reception Security Officer (Office Tower)

Steady 12-hour shifts at an industrial park in Montague Gardens for PSIRA-registered officers. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

You'll report in Montague Gardens. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Keep the guardhouse clean and the OB up to date for the relieving officer
• Open and close boom gates for residents, deliveries and contractors
• Test the panic button and radio when you come on duty

• First-aid Level 1 certificate
