Job Description

A security company in Richards Bay wants a firm, fair supervisor for its residential estate. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

You'll report in Richards Bay. Relocation is not covered for this one. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What your day looks like

  • Check that PSIRA registrations of staff on site are current
  • Investigate incidents and write reports for the client
  • Order and issue uniform, radios and torches
  • Inspect guards on post for uniform, alertness and OB entries
  • Run on-site training on procedures and emergency drills
  • Plan the monthly roster to stay within legal working hours
  • Meet the client weekly on security concerns

What you need

  • At least 3 years in security, including 1 as a supervisor
  • Matric, with a security management course a plus
  • Firm with staff but fair and consistent
  • Confident writer of incident reports and rosters

Helpful, not essential

  • Handgun competency for armed supervisor posts
  • Labour relations or basic supervision course
  • Own reliable vehicle

What you get

  • Management training for growth to operations manager
  • Company vehicle or car allowance on area roles
  • Cellphone allowance

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Richards Bay really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: supervision or labour relations certificates plus references from security managers you worked under.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Richards Bay.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

  • 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.
