Do you want to be one of us before the summer of 2026 with good opportunities for continued employment and work year-round? Can you see yourself in the security industry? We can! Put on the uniform with us and discover a socially important business with a wonderful community and good development opportunities. If you are hired and are not already a trained guard, Securitas will cover your training.

The position is a summer temporary job, so we hope you are available to work between weeks 25-33. Securitas will assign you a schedule so you can plan your summer with both work and enjoyable activities in good time! Whether you want to work day or night, in a fast-paced or calm environment, Securitas has the job for you.

Working as a guard is perfect for you who enjoy working with people and helping them in their daily lives. As a guard at our office in Gothenburg, you will become part of a close-knit team. The length of shifts varies, but is often 12-hour shifts either day or night. The schedule also includes work on weekends.

As a patrolling guard, you are responsible for carrying out surveillance for several clients during your shift. You will travel between clients by car and perform various types of checks, including area surveillance, patrolling inside premises, alarm connections, and closures for clients. In this role, it is important to document your work and any deviations you encounter. The work is independent and often feels free, but with great responsibility. The role of a patrolling guard suits you if you want a job where you can move around. The working hours are mainly at night.

One of your guard colleagues in the country is Samir. He wants to share a few words with you if you are curious about applying for the position:

"Being a patrol guard is varied. At night, I am with several clients while the city sleeps, and I appreciate the calm that comes when I have ensured that everything is safe – it gives a special feeling of responsibility and freedom. Each client and location has its own rhythm and routines, making the job stimulating, unpredictable, and always interesting."

We are safety. We are Securitas.
