Job Description

Retail in Brackenfell runs on thin margins, and a building-supplies store needs someone guarding its stock. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is in Brackenfell (Western Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

What your day looks like

  • Search staff bags at exit points according to store policy
  • Check receiving bay deliveries against invoices and seal numbers
  • Help with stock counts and point out loss hot-spots
  • Record every incident with photos, times and value of goods
  • Detain suspects lawfully and call SAPS, then write a statement
  • Review CCTV footage to confirm suspected theft

You'll need

  • Knowledge of lawful arrest and search under the Criminal Procedure Act
  • Discreet, observant and honest
  • Matric or equivalent NQF Level 4
  • PSIRA registration, Grade C at least
  • Good report writing
  • Available for retail hours including month-end weekends

Nice if you have

  • Experience giving evidence in court
  • Previous store detective experience with case outcomes

On offer

  • Staff discount at the retailer
  • Plain clothes work (no uniform in detective roles)
  • Monthly recovery incentives

Tips to get shortlisted
