Company Description

Securitas plays an important role in society and manages one of Sweden's most important missions - to protect and help people feel safe. Now you have the chance to become part of Sweden's largest security company.

As the country's largest employer in our industry, we can offer you development opportunities and variety that few other companies can. We strive for unified leadership with a balance between expectations and conditions. Together, we help build high-performing and engaged teams through diversity and inclusion. As a key person with us, you have the opportunity to create a balanced and positive culture where employees can take space and be coached to perform at the top of their abilities.

Securitas Sweden places its personnel in wartime. This means that as an employee, in the event of war, you will retain your employment and be managed by Securitas.

About the Role

As a security guard, your primary task is to deliver safety to our customers. You do this, for example, in a monitoring center or at an access control point. As a security guard, you have substantial authority and often work closely with our customers' staff on objects that are crucial to Sweden's security.

The work is independent and often feels free, but with great responsibility.

The tasks are highly varied, and as a security guard, you can work both indoors and outdoors, at night or during the day. The length of shifts varies, but they are often scheduled in 12-hour shifts. Since Securitas is part of an operation that runs all year round, weekend work every other weekend is common.

You will, for example:

  • Handle cases within your assignment area
  • Ensure that no unauthorized persons have access to the objects
  • Staff stationary objects as needed

The position suits you who enjoy working with people and helping them in their daily lives. If you want to be part of a close-knit team, this is the job for you.

We are safety. We are Securitas.

  • B driver's license

Meritorious if you have

  • Weapon training
  • Guard training
  • Security guard training - military or civilian
  • Experience from the security industry or the Armed Forces
  • Pistol training (HAS)

As a person, we believe you are service-oriented, calm, and organized and can handle periods of high work pace. You are interested in technology and have an easy time understanding instructions. We see that you as a candidate are an independent person who trusts your own abilities, quickly understands problems, and solves them creatively. You have a systematic and meticulous approach with an eye for detail. Great emphasis will be placed on your personal suitability for the position.

Taking responsibility comes naturally to you – you are simply an honest, helpful, and vigilant person who makes those around you feel safe.
