Original job description

Start Building Your Career in Security

Ready to level up your security career? Securiguard is seeking a Retail Security Officer with OFA 2 (Intermediate). This is more than a job-it's a pathway to advanced opportunities. Gain the expertise, confidence, and tactical judgment to grow into specialized roles like Undercover Loss Prevention and Tactical Security.

This is an active, customer-facing position designed for individuals who are serious about building a career in security. You'll develop hands-on experience in retail security, incident response, observation, report writing, and professional communication-all skills that can open doors to more advanced security and loss prevention roles.

If you're dependable, observant, physically active, and motivated to grow, this could be where your next chapter in security begins.

What You'll Do

As a Retail Security Officer, you'll help create a safe and welcoming environment for customers, employees, and visitors while maintaining a professional security presence throughout the store.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

Maintain a professional and visible presence to deter theft and unwanted activity.
Conduct regular patrols throughout the store, sales floor, entrances, exits, and designated areas.
Remain alert and attentive while observing customer activity and identifying potential security concerns.
Provide professional customer service, assist with inquiries, and support store staff when required.
Respond appropriately to incidents, disturbances, safety concerns, and other situations.
Observe, identify, and report suspicious activity to the appropriate personnel.
Complete clear, accurate, and professional incident reports and daily activity logs.
Communicate effectively with store management, Loss Prevention, and other security personnel.
Support a safe, secure, and positive environment for customers and staff.

This Role Is Active

This is not a sit-down security position.

You must be comfortable standing and walking throughout the store for the full duration of your shift, while remaining alert and engaged with your surroundings.

Strong report writing is also an important part of the role. You will be expected to document incidents clearly, accurately, and professionally.

Shift: Friday to Tuesday 1:00pm -10:00 pm

Pay rate: $23.25

Where This Can Take You

We are looking for people who want to grow within security, not simply work a security post.

Your experience as a Retail Security Officer can help you build the foundation for future opportunities in specialized security, including:

Retail Security → AST Tactical Security → AST Undercover Loss Prevention Officer

Progression opportunities are based on qualifications, performance, experience, and business needs, but we're committed to developing employees who demonstrate the right skills, attitude, and potential.

What We're Looking For

Valid BC Security Worker License (BST) in good standing.
OFA Level 2 (Intermediate) certification
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to write clear, detailed, and professional incident reports.
Strong observation and situational awareness.
Professional, reliable, and customer-focused approach.
Ability to remain calm and composed when dealing with challenging situations.
Willingness to learn and develop within the security industry.
Ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a team.
Previous retail, customer service, security, or related experience is an asset.
Ability to stand and walk for extended periods throughout an 8-hour shift.

Employee Perks

Paid training
Extended health benefits
Recognition programs and events
Opportunities for career development and advancement
Potential pathway toward specialized Tactical and Loss Prevention opportunities

Who We Are

At Securiguard, our purpose is simple: to make people feel safe.

With more than 4,000 security and safety professionals across Canada, we provide security solutions across retail, corporate, industrial, aviation, healthcare, government, educational, and other critical sectors.

Our Teams Are Guided By Our R.E.A.C.H. Values

Respect

Empathy
Accountability
Courtesy
Honesty

We believe security can be more than a job. With the right training, experience, and commitment, it can become a career.

Ready to Build Your Security Career?

If you're looking for a role where you can gain real experience, develop your skills, and work toward more specialized opportunities in the security industry, apply today.

Your security career can start here.

Salary: $23.25 - $23.25 per hour
