Job Description
Are you a vigilant, disciplined, and proactive individual seeking a critical role in safeguarding a prominent commercial establishment during the night? ISCO (International Security Company Ltd), Rwanda’s premier security solutions provider, is seeking dedicated Security Guards for a night shift at a busy mall in Kigali. This isn’t just a job; it’s a vital responsibility to ensure the safety and security of property, assets, and any authorized personnel present during non-operational hours. As a Night Shift Mall Security Guard, you will be the eyes and ears of the mall, operating predominantly independently and making crucial decisions to maintain order and deter criminal activity. Your duties will encompass a wide range of security functions, from diligent patrols of the entire premises – including parking areas, common spaces, and restricted zones – to advanced CCTV monitoring and rapid response to alarms or suspicious incidents. The role demands exceptional observational skills, physical stamina, and an unwavering commitment to detail, especially during the quiet hours where vigilance is paramount. You will be instrumental in conducting thorough checks, ensuring all entry and exit points are secured, and meticulously documenting all occurrences. The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of our client’s property, ensuring a secure environment for future daytime operations. This position requires a high degree of self-reliance, integrity, and a professional demeanor, even when working under minimal direct supervision. You will be expected to enforce mall policies, assist in emergency situations, and act as a first responder until additional support arrives. Given the nature of the night shift, strong problem-solving abilities and the capacity to remain alert and focused for extended periods are essential. ISCO prides itself on providing comprehensive training and development opportunities, ensuring our security personnel are equipped with the latest techniques and knowledge to excel. Join ISCO and contribute to our legacy of protection and trust, becoming an integral part of a team that defines excellence in security services across Rwanda. Your dedication will directly contribute to the peace of mind of our clients and the safety of the community.
