This is a current vacancy. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Armed Response Officer in Polokwane, and we encourage applicants from across Limpopo to consider this opportunity.
The Role
The organisation is investing in its Polokwane operation, and this Armed Response Officer position reflects that commitment. The successful candidate will work across the legal and security jobs function and contribute to the wider Limpopo business.
