Job Description

Retail in Johannesburg CBD runs on thin margins, and a fashion retail store needs someone guarding its stock. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

The work is in Johannesburg CBD, Gauteng, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Most weeks are 45 hours, in line with the BCEA.

What your day looks like

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

What you need

  • Discreet, observant and honest
  • Good report writing
  • PSIRA registration, Grade C at least
  • Able to handle confrontation calmly

On offer

  • Staff discount at the retailer
  • Retail trading hours, no night shift in most stores
  • Plain clothes work (no uniform in detective roles)

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Johannesburg CBD really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): matric certificate, loss prevention or investigation course certificates plus PSIRA certificate and ID copy.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

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

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

Before you hit apply

  • Keep your appearance low-key for the interview. Detectives need to blend in with shoppers.
  • Show you know the legal limits of search and arrest. A single unlawful arrest can cost a store badly, so they will ask about it.
