Step into a Access Control Officer role in Centurion and make your mark across Gauteng. The team is hiring now and wants to hear from sharp, committed candidates.
The Role
The organisation is investing in its Centurion operation, and this Access Control Officer position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the legal and security jobs function and contribute to the wider Gauteng business.
Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Centurion team.
Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the legal and security jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Centurion much easier.
Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Centurion teams, and the new Access Control Officer will feel that from the first week.
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 Centurion.

On top of that, the role is intended to operate under the hiring organisation’s workplace conduct, health and safety policies in Gauteng.
