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. Whether you want to work a lot or a little, day or night, we need to grow.
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.
Securitas Sweden places its personnel in wartime. This means that you, as an employee, will retain your employment and be managed by Securitas in the event of war.
You take care of people's safety – Securitas takes care of you.
About the role
Are you looking for a flexible on-call position with the opportunity to work year-round, day or night? With us, you get the chance to grow in a socially important role with good opportunities for future full-time employment. We would like you to be available for work both weekdays and weekends, with the possibility of full-time hours 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 for assignments to protect critical operations for Sweden. This is a task for those who are not just looking for a job – but are ready to take on a responsibility with real significance for our country's supply and security. It's about protecting what must function – around the clock, year-round.
As a security guard, you play a crucial role in maintaining the safety of operations that are important to 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 control, or work in a monitoring center. You will need to make your own decisions in critical situations, have good endurance, and stable judgment.
Security guard duties are conducted both indoors and outdoors, day and night. The length of shifts varies, but they are often scheduled in 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
We are security. We are Securitas.
Requirements
- You need to be a trained security guard, civilian or military, with valid approval.
- Have approved grades in Swedish and English from the first year of high school
- Class B driver's license
- 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 security work, or security services
- Completed extensive security clearances
- Weapons training
Clarification for 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 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.
Security Clearance
Please note that the position is classified in a security class and means that you will undergo a security clearance according to the Security Protection Act (2018:585). To investigate and assess whether you meet the requirements to be approved according to current regulations, security interviews, background checks, and register checks will be conducted. The assessment aims to investigate legality, 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 comprehensive assessment of you, your life situation, and financial conditions when evaluating your suitability.
In applicable cases, a corresponding check may be conducted on those you cohabit 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?
