Job Description

Steady 12-hour shifts at an industrial park in Soweto for PSIRA-registered officers. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll report in Soweto. Relocation is not covered for this one.

The work, day to day

  • Call the armed response or SAPS number from the call list when needed
  • 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
  • Open and close boom gates for residents, deliveries and contractors
  • Direct traffic and parking during school drop-off or big events
  • Check visitors' IDs and capture them on the visitor app or in the gate register

What you need

  • Clear, neat handwriting for the OB and registers
  • Clean criminal record
  • Grade 10 minimum; matric preferred
  • PSIRA registration at Grade C or higher, paid up to date
  • Alert, polite and firm with the public

Nice if you have

  • A Code 8 licence for vehicle patrols
  • Previous experience at a similar site type

What's in it for you

  • Chance to be upgraded to Grade B with training
  • Uniform, boots and winter jacket issued
  • Paid night-shift allowance under the security sector rules
  • Provident fund contributions
