BOS Security is Hiring Part-Time Security Guards

Thinking about working as a part-time security guard? BOS Security is hiring! We offer training, support, and opportunity to our security officers. You can choose the schedule that’s best for you. Work around your school or family obligations or choose the hours when you are at your best. You can also supplement your full-time income with an evening or weekend shift.

As a part-time security guard, you’ll help people feel safe and help prevent losses, especially during busy periods like the holidays or other crunch times. You’ll get to meet lots of different kinds of people while providing a service that makes them feel safe and secure.

 

Part-Time Security is a great way to try out a new career

If you have strong customer service skills, are attentive and detail-oriented, a part-time security job guard may be for you. You’ll need a high school diploma or general education degree (GED) to join the BOS Security team. Ideally, we look for people who have security, law enforcement, military, or other related experience and/or training.

 

What’s it like to be a security guard?
