With us, you get the chance to grow in a socially important role with good opportunities for future full-time employment. We prefer that you are available for work both weekdays and weekends, with the possibility of full-time during the summer. Your contribution will be particularly important during the summer periods when our need for staff is greatest. Secure your employment today with Sweden's largest security company!

Securitas is now looking for security guards to protect critical operations for Sweden. This is a mission for you who are not just looking for a job – but are ready to take on a task with great responsibility and real significance for our country's supply and security. It is about protecting what must function – around the clock, year-round.

As a security guard, you play a crucial role in maintaining the security of operations that are important for Sweden. You work with extended powers, often in close collaboration with our clients.

The work is varied and can include both stationary and patrolling surveillance, access controls, or work in a monitoring center. You will need to make your own decisions in critical situations, have good endurance, and stable judgment. Therefore, we are looking for a person who has the ability to remain calm when others do not – and is loyal to Swedish interests.

Security guard duties are conducted both indoors and outdoors, day and night. The length of shifts varies, but they are often scheduled in 8-12 hour shifts according to a rolling schedule. Since we work in an operation that is active every day of the year, it is common to work every other weekend.

The position includes, among other things, that you:

  • Protect critical operations from unauthorized access and other threats
  • Perform checks according to applicable regulations and instructions
  • Collaborate with personnel and authorities on security issues
  • You will carry a weapon

We are security. We are Securitas.

Requirements

  • You need to be a trained security guard, civilian or military
  • Have approved grades in Swedish and English from high school
  • Driver's license B
  • You need to undergo and be approved in a security clearance as the position involves placement in a security class
  • You need to undergo weapons training with a passing result

It is an advantage if you also have:

  • Previous experience in guarding protected objects, other surveillance, or security work
  • Have undergone extensive security clearances previously
  • Weapons training

Clarification for you who are military security guards: If you have completed security guard training with the Armed Forces as part of the Armed Forces' basic training (GMU), this can be validated for civilian use. The security guard training, as well as GMU, must have been completed in 2016 or later, and your training certificate must not be older than five years at the time of application. You should have the documentation ready in your application, as it may take time to request it from the Armed Forces.

We are looking for a person with integrity, maturity, and the ability to take responsibility – both for their own and others' safety. You have a natural inclination for structure and order, and a vigilance that others trust. This is a position for you who have life and experience behind you, and who are now ready to use it to make a difference.

Security Clearance

Please note that the position is placed in a security class and means that you will undergo a security clearance according to Security Protection Act (2018:585). To investigate and assess whether you meet the requirements to be approved according to applicable regulations, security interviews, background checks, and register checks will be conducted. The assessment aims to investigate legal compliance, suitability, reliability, loyalty, and any vulnerabilities according to the Security Police's regulations and guidelines. Information obtained may come from you, open sources, or authorities. We apply a holistic assessment of you, your life situation, and financial circumstances when evaluating your suitability.

In relevant cases, a corresponding check may be made of the person you live with or have a similar relationship with.

To be considered for the position, it is therefore required (at a minimum) that;

  • You are not listed in the Police Authority's various registers, e.g., suspicion registers, criminal records, etc.
  • You have organized finances; do not have payment remarks, unresolved debts, or are listed with collection agencies or the Enforcement Authority

This is not an ordinary job - it is a mission in service to society. Are you the one we are looking for?
