Work-Force
An opportunity has arisen for a Security Officer in Ballito. Suitably qualified candidates from across KwaZulu-Natal are invited to apply.
The Role
This Security Officer role sits within the legal and security jobs function in Ballito. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across KwaZulu-Natal.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the legal and security jobs team in KwaZulu-Natal make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.
Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the legal and security jobs group in Ballito.
Your Workplace
The environment is process-driven and regulation-aware. Whether you are at a desk or on site, attention to detail, calm conduct and accurate reporting are non-negotiable.
Equally, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.
Notably, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in KwaZulu-Natal.
A Typical Day
Your day is built on focus and detail. You work through matter files or post lists, review evidence or contracts and check that every required record is in place. Communication with site teams, attorneys, clients or SAPS is constant, and you keep your reports factual, precise and timely. When something out of the ordinary happens, you respond calmly and follow procedure, knowing that good documentation today protects the business tomorrow.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Ballito.
In addition, the Ballito office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.
Our Commitment to Transformation
Crucially, the organisation is committed to fair, merit-based recruitment and equal opportunity. Applications are assessed against the published role requirements in line with applicable employment law.
Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Ballito.
