Loss Prevention Officer

This is a current vacancy. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Loss Prevention Officer in Prieska, and we encourage applicants from across Northern Cape to consider this opportunity.

What This Role Involves

The Loss Prevention Officer position is part of an ongoing recruitment drive across Northern Cape. The brief has been shaped carefully, with a focus on delivery in Prieska and across the legal and security jobs space.

Beyond that, the successful applicant is given the room to plan, deliver and review their work without unnecessary noise. The organisation has built its Prieska team on trust, and the Loss Prevention Officer role will feel that from week one.

Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Loss Prevention Officer is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Northern Cape is consistently high and consistently fair.

Importantly, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Prieska also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Day in the Life

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.

Crucially, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Northern Cape operations throw up the unexpected.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Prieska.

In addition, the Prieska 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.

Beyond that, the team mix in Prieska reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Collaboration is the default working mode. Whether picking up a quick query or working through a complex project, you will find colleagues willing to lean in and help.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.
