Work-Force
Applications are warmly invited for a Loss Prevention Officer role based in King William’s Town. We welcome candidates from every background across Eastern Cape who are ready to grow with us.
Overview
The Loss Prevention Officer vacancy forms part of how the King William’s Town branch keeps performing. It pairs day-to-day delivery with longer-running priorities that keep the legal and security jobs side of the business moving forward.
Communication runs both ways. Managers across the legal and security jobs team in Eastern Cape make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

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 King William’s Town 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 King William’s Town teams, and the new Loss Prevention Officer will feel that from the first week.
