Job Description

When a panic button goes off in a business park in Rosslyn, you are the one who arrives first. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

The site is in Rosslyn; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

The work, day to day

  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
  • Check the firearm in and out of the safe at shift start and end
  • Drive the response vehicle safely at speed to client addresses
  • Visit clients for key-holder checks and open-up requests
  • Write detailed incident reports on the tablet or in the vehicle logbook

What you need

  • Calm under pressure and physically fit
  • SAPS firearm competency certificate for handguns (and shotgun if required)
  • Valid Code 8 or Code 10 licence with at least 2 years driving
  • Able to work 12-hour rotating shifts
  • Clean criminal record and no pending cases
  • PSIRA Grade B or C with an armed response course

On offer

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Rosslyn really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: PSIRA registration certificate showing armed response, firearm competency certificate plus service record or reference letter from past security work.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

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

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

  • Put your firearm competency and armed response course at the top. Without both, the CV is not read further.
  • Mention the areas you know well. Companies prefer officers who can find addresses fast without a GPS.
