Night Booth Security typically involves monitoring entry points from a booth or kiosk, focusing on visitor check-in and access control. Night Security Guards have a broader role, including patrolling and surveillance across various locations. Both roles require similar credentials and are used in similar industries, but their work environments and specific duties differ.

How do I become a night security guard?

To become a night security guard, you typically need a high school diploma or equivalent, and some employers may require a security guard license or certification depending on state regulations. Relevant skills include observation, communication, and sometimes basic first aid, with some positions requiring prior security or law enforcement experience. The job involves working overnight shifts in various environments such as commercial properties, warehouses, or residential complexes.

What jobs pay 4000 a week without a degree?

Night booth security jobs typically do not pay $4,000 a week; such high earnings usually require specialized skills, experience, or working in high-paying industries like finance, sales, or entrepreneurship. Some roles in sales, real estate, or business ownership can reach that level without a degree, but they often involve commission-based income and risk. Security positions generally offer lower weekly pay unless in executive or specialized security roles with additional certifications and responsibilities.

What do security guards do at night?

Night booth security guards monitor and patrol designated areas to prevent theft, vandalism, and unauthorized access. They check security systems, document incidents, and ensure the safety of people and property during overnight hours, often working with surveillance tools and maintaining detailed logs.

Job description

About the Senator John Heinz History Center

The Senator John Heinz History Center is a Smithsonian-affiliated Museum and a first-day Pittsburgh attraction that presents compelling stories from American history with a Western Pennsylvania connection, all in an interactive and engaging environment for visitors of all ages.  The largest history museum in Pennsylvania, the AAM-accredited History Center attracts large and diverse audiences to its 370,000-square-foot facility in Pittsburgh’s historic Strip District that includes six floors of long-term and changing exhibition space along with spectacular spaces for unique events.

The History Center’s family of museums includes the Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum, a dynamic museum-within-a-museum; the Fort Pitt Museum in Point State Park; and Meadowcroft Rockshelter & Historic Village, a National Historic Landmark located in Avella, Washington County, Pa. The History Center also leads a partnership of more than 125 regional historical societies, museums, and organizations dedicated to preserving local history – the History Center Affiliates Program.

A popular destination for families and visitors to our region, the History Center attracts more than 250,000 visitors annually and reaches millions through virtual programs and digital outreach. The History Center was recently recognized as America’s #1 History Museum by USA TODAY and “Pittsburgh’s Best Museum” by Pittsburgh Magazine.

Job Posting

The Senator John Heinz History Center is seeking a Full-time, Security Officer to work in our Security Booth, Sunday through Thursday, 3PM – 11PM.  While these are the primary hours for this position, flexibility is expected as History Center business dictates.

As the first and last point of contact in the building, the Booth Security Guard  is responsible for monitoring and executing security procedures ensuring the safety, security, and well-being of the facilities, facilities’ contents, staff, and patrons.

Security Officers must be friendly yet firm and responsive to the needs of all customers – at night, mostly via phone.  The Officer may be questioned by the public on a number of topics regarding theHistory Center – directions within, amenities, exhibit components, and facilities.  The officer observes and operates security systems such as cameras, fire and burglar alarms. The officer also assists with overall risk management – locating, correcting and/or reporting threats of all kinds to the organization.  The position demands that the officer maintain a working knowledge of the History Center exhibits, programs, and emergency response protocols while providing extraordinary customer service/interactions.  Since this Officer at times may be the only person in the building, a high degree of attentiveness and pro-activity will be necessary.

This is a full-time, hourly position reporting to the Chief of Security.  

Why Work at the History Center?

  • Rewarding, mission-driven work that makes an impact in the community
  • Smithsonian-affiliated Museum located in Pittsburgh’s vibrant and historic Strip District
  • Voted the #1 history museum in the nation by USA Today
  • Voted Best Museum in Pittsburgh by Pittsburgh Magazine
  • Highly professional, collegial staff and dedicated volunteers
  • Located in Pittsburgh, one of America’s “most livable” cities
  • Dynamic workplace in Pittsburgh’s historic Strip District
  • Full benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA) options
  • 403(B) retirement plans with employer match
  • Paid time off (vacation, personal, and sick days)
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Nine (9) paid holidays
  • Company paid life insurance / LTD
  • Wellness and Employee Assistance Program
  • Discounts in the Museum Shop and Café
  • Public transportation and parking options nearby

High school education or equivalent required with 2 years security experience. This position requires extreme attentiveness with the security monitors, alarms, and execution of security procedures ensuring the safety of the patrons during late evening event rentals, evening/night staff, facilities, and other facility contents.  This position can be, at times,  moderately physically demanding.  It also requires the ability to be both a multi-team player as well as function independently with a lot of self-motivation.
