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 more people.

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

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 greater authority than a regular guard 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, mostly during the day, but night shifts may occur. The length of shifts varies, but they are often scheduled in 12-hour shifts. Since we are a business that operates all year round, weekend work also occurs.

You will, for example:

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

The position suits you if you enjoy working with people and helping them in their daily lives. In this role, a good day is a calm day, but as a security guard, you must be prepared for situations to change quickly. If you want to be part of a close-knit team, this is the job for you.

We are safety. We are Securitas.
