Armed Security Officer

JOIN THE AWARD-WINNING TEAM AT TASK9 SECURITY Armed Security Officers – Patrol & Stationary Assignments

Evening & Overnight Shifts Available | Training Provided to the Right Candidates

Looking for more than just another security job?

Maybe you have a background in military service, law enforcement, corrections, fire/EMS, or public safety.

Maybe you're considering a future career in law enforcement, the military, emergency services, or professional security and you're looking for a place to gain real-world experience.

Or maybe you've never worked in any of those fields but believe you have the professionalism, discipline, judgment, and drive to succeed.

TASK9 Security wants to talk to you.

Since 2008, TASK9 Security has grown into one of the region's leading and award-winning private security organizations. Our officers do more than sit behind a desk or watch a camera. They are trained to be professional, observant, proactive, and capable of responding appropriately when situations develop.

Experience is valued — but potential matters too. We will train the right person.

BUILD EXPERIENCE. DEVELOP SKILLS. MAKE AN IMPACT.

TASK9 provides officers with ongoing training and professional development designed to build skills that are valuable in security and other public-safety careers.

Depending upon assignment and position, officers may receive training in areas such as:

• Professional communication and de-escalation
• Conflict management
• Report writing and documentation
• Patrol procedures
• Situational awareness
• Radio communications
• Incident response
• Scene protection and preservation
• Professional contacts and interviewing
• Defensive tactics
• Firearms skills and safety
• Leadership and supervisory development

If your long-term goal is a career in law enforcement, the military, corrections, investigations, emergency services, or professional security, TASK9 can provide an environment where you can develop experience, confidence, discipline, and leadership skills.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

TASK9 Armed Security Officers work a variety of assignments, including:

• Vehicle patrol
• Stationary security posts
• Apartment communities
• Commercial properties
• Hotels
• Construction sites
• Special events
• Other contracted locations throughout the region

Our officers may encounter everything from routine property checks and customer contacts to disturbances, suspicious activity, trespassing, emergencies, and incidents requiring law-enforcement response.

When appropriate, TASK9 officers work alongside or assist local law enforcement by observing and reporting criminal activity, documenting incidents, preserving scenes, providing witness information, and maintaining security until law enforcement arrives.

No two shifts are exactly alike.

MILITARY & LAW ENFORCEMENT EXPERIENCE?

We value the discipline, accountability, leadership, situational awareness, and teamwork that often come from military and law-enforcement service.

If you're a veteran, reservist, former or current law-enforcement professional, corrections officer, firefighter, EMT, or other public-safety professional, we encourage you to apply.

Your experience may translate extremely well into the TASK9 environment.

NO EXPERIENCE YET? DON'T COUNT YOURSELF OUT.

Some of our strongest candidates aren't coming from another security company.

We're interested in people with the right character and mindset who are willing to learn.

If you're dependable, coachable, physically capable of performing the assignment, comfortable dealing with people, able to remain calm under pressure, and serious about developing professional skills, we can train you.

WOMEN ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO APPLY

Professional security requires far more than physical presence.

Communication, judgment, confidence, observation skills, emotional control, professionalism, and the ability to de-escalate situations are critical to this profession.

Women interested in security, law enforcement, military service, investigations, or other public-safety careers are strongly encouraged to apply.

You don't need to "look like a security guard."

You need the character, confidence, professionalism, and willingness to learn required to become a good one.
