Job Description

Clients in a suburban residential area in Randburg pay for fast response, and this crew delivers it. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

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

What your day looks like

  • Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses
  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
  • Visit clients for key-holder checks and open-up requests
  • Secure a scene until SAPS arrives and hand over details
  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over

You'll need

  • At least 2 years in guarding or response
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving
  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts
  • SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)

Helpful, not essential

  • First-aid Level 2 or 3
  • Advanced driving course
  • SAPS, SANDF or reservist background

What's in it for you

  • Group life cover through the provident fund
  • Regular refresher shooting practice
  • Response vehicle and firearm provided
