Job Description

Officers look to you on every shift at a guarding contract across several sites in Worcester. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll be based at a guarding contract across several sites in Worcester. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Check that PSIRA registrations of staff on site are current
  • Investigate incidents and write reports for the client
  • Post officers when the shift changes over and cover no-shows
  • Do surprise night visits to check posts
  • Meet the client weekly on security concerns
  • Inspect guards on post for uniform, alertness and OB entries
  • Run on-site training on procedures and emergency drills

Must-haves

  • Firm with staff but fair and consistent
  • Available after hours for emergencies
  • At least 3 years in security, including 1 as a supervisor
  • Valid Code 8 licence and willing to drive between sites

Nice if you have

  • Mining or hospital security experience
  • Labour relations or basic supervision course

On offer

  • Company vehicle or car allowance on area roles
  • Cellphone allowance
  • Provident fund and funeral cover

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: supervision or labour relations certificates plus PSIRA Grade B certificate.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

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

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.

How to stand out

  • 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.
