Applicants must have open availability, including weekends and flexible shift hours, and be ready to provide exceptional armed security services at a range of public events or multiple client sites. This role is absolutely crucial in ensuring the safety and protection of our clients' property through a commanding visible presence, proactive enforcement of security protocols, and the appropriate use of firearms strictly when necessary as a last resort. To excel in this high-responsibility role, an armed security guard must remain highly alert, maintain a calm disposition during intense situations, and communicate with skills reflecting strong verbal de-escalation and customer service.

  • Respond promptly to alarms and disturbances; assess situations, provide professional assistance, and coordinate with law enforcement or emergency services.
  • Swiftly address trespassers or uninvited persons and safely escort them off the client's premises.
  • Prepare detailed and accurate incident reports, documenting any operational irregularities, safety concerns, or security breaches.
  • Ensure that all assigned protective equipment, including firearms, are maintained in excellent working condition and used responsibly in accordance with state laws and company policies.
  • Utilize firearms safely and effectively only as an absolute last resort when all other means of verbal de-escalation have been completely exhausted.
  • Provide regular status updates to security supervisors regarding ongoing security matters.
  • Interact courteously and professionally with employees, visitors, and members of the public.

Requirements
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Must be 18 years of age or older.

  • 1-2 years of verified experience working as an armed security guard or armed security officer with a proven track record of success.
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and verbal de-escalation skills.
  • Must successfully pass a comprehensive criminal background check and drug screen in accordance with state laws and company values.
