Job Description

You'll catch shoplifting and stock losses at a retail distribution centre in Rosslyn before they cost jobs. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

Home base is a retail distribution centre on the Rosslyn side of Gauteng. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

The work, day to day

  • Walk the floor in plain clothes and watch for shoplifting behaviour
  • Share trends with the store manager each week
  • Check receiving bay deliveries against invoices and seal numbers
  • Attend court as a witness when a case goes to trial
  • Detain suspects lawfully and call SAPS, then write a statement

What you need

  • Discreet, observant and honest
  • Available for retail hours including month-end weekends
  • Knowledge of lawful arrest and search under the Criminal Procedure Act
  • PSIRA registration, Grade C at least

What's in it for you

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