Job Description

You'll control who comes in and out of a construction yard in Potchefstroom, and log every visitor properly. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll be based at a construction yard in Potchefstroom. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What your day looks like

  • Open and close boom gates for residents, deliveries and contractors
  • Hand out and collect contractor access cards
  • Test the panic button and radio when you come on duty
  • Search vehicles and bags leaving the site when company policy requires it
  • Keep the guardhouse clean and the OB up to date for the relieving officer
  • Patrol the perimeter on a set route and scan checkpoint tags
  • Direct traffic and parking during school drop-off or big events

What you need

  • Clean criminal record
  • Able to work 12-hour day and night shifts, including weekends
  • Physically fit for foot patrols
  • Grade 10 minimum; matric preferred
  • Clear, neat handwriting for the OB and registers

Nice if you have

  • Experience on estate access apps or biometric readers
  • Previous experience at a similar site type
  • First-aid Level 1 certificate

On offer

  • Chance to be upgraded to Grade B with training
  • Stable long-term site contracts
  • Uniform, boots and winter jacket issued

How to apply

  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): certified copy of your ID, previous security employers' contact details plus Grade 10 or matric certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.
