ABOUT US:

Since 2009, Gowest Gold has expanded its land holdings to over 120 square kilometres in the prolific Timmins gold camp. Our properties are strategically positions along key geological structures, including the underexplored Pipestone Fault, associated with the gold-rich Porcupine-Destor Fault system, which has produced over 145 million ounces of gold across the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.

Adhere to all relevant corporate policies and procedures.
Perform other duties as assigned.

REQUIREMENTS:

Post secondary education in law and security, with a minimum 1-year experience in security or law enforcement, or a military background. Alternatively, Ontario Secondary School Graduation Diploma with the desire to complete a correspondence course in Law and Security may be considered.
Mandatory Private Security and Investigative Services Act (PSISA) training and testing will be required to become licensed as a Security Guard.
Current Advanced First Aid, AED, and CPR certificate.
Comfortable working with various modes of communication (radio transmission, video monitors, security alarms).
Aptitude and ability to learn and participate in various training programs (e.g. WHMIS, Explosive Recognition, Transportation of Dangerous Goods, Spill Response, etc.).
Good computer skills and familiarity with Microsoft products (Word, Excel, Outlook etc.).
Excellent interpersonal skills and able to deal effectively with others.

This is a fixed-term casual position established to provide coverage for Security Guards who are on vacation, leave, illness, training, or other approved absences. Work will be assigned based on operational requirements. While the successful candidate may be scheduled on a 7-days-on / 7-days-off rotation with 12-hour shifts when coverage is required, there are no guaranteed hours of work, and schedules may vary depending on business needs.
