Security Area Manager (Night Rounds)

Officers look to you on every shift at a guarding contract across several sites in Sandton. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

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

• Plan the monthly roster to stay within legal working hours
• Order and issue uniform, radios and torches
• Check that PSIRA registrations of staff on site are current
• Run on-site training on procedures and emergency drills
• Do surprise night visits to check posts
• Inspect guards on post for uniform, alertness and OB entries

• Available after hours for emergencies
• Firm with staff but fair and consistent
• Valid Code 8 licence and willing to drive between sites
• PSIRA Grade B (Grade A for area manager posts)
• At least 3 years in security, including 1 as a supervisor
• Confident writer of incident reports and rosters

• Handgun competency for armed supervisor posts
• Computer skills for rosters in Excel or a workforce app
• Labour relations or basic supervision course

• Management training for growth to operations manager
• Provident fund and funeral cover
• Cellphone allowance
• Company vehicle or car allowance on area roles

• Mention how you handled absenteeism or roster gaps. It is the biggest daily headache for security companies.
• Say how many officers you supervised and on which sites. The number matters more than the title.
