  • Carry out visible patrols through the sector between call-outs
  • Search the property perimeter and check doors, windows and gates
  • Give first aid at an incident until paramedics take over

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

What you get

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