Security Guard - Kamloops (Guardteck)

The Role

We're looking for reliable, professional security guards who take pride in customer service. You'll often be the first person a tenant, shopper, visitor, or contractor meets, so how you greet, help, and guide people matters as much as how you protect the property. Depending on your site, you may work a front desk or concierge post in a commercial tower, patrol a busy shopping centre, or manage access at a multi-tenant property.

In our interview process, we'll get to know you and your experience, and determine which site is the best fit for your skills and experience!

Pay, Benefits & Growth

• Pay rate dependent on site assignment. You'll start at your site's starting rate, with the opportunity to move up based on reliability and performance


• Health and dental benefits for full-time employees working 32 or more hours per week


• Opportunities to grow, with training, mentorship, and promotion from within, including through our Supervisor Development Program


• Full-time, part-time, and casual positions, with day, afternoon, night, weekend, and holiday shifts


• A supportive team that recognizes initiative, reliability, and results

What You'll Do

• Greet and assist tenants, visitors, shoppers, and contractors in a professional, friendly, and calm manner


• Control access using key card and fob systems, visitor sign-in, ID checks, and pass issuance


• Keep restricted areas, such as construction zones, mechanical rooms, and tenant spaces, limited to authorized people


• Verify contractors against approved lists and confirm ID and work orders or permits before granting entry


• Conduct indoor and outdoor foot patrols, monitor CCTV, and respond to alarms


• Enforce property rules fairly and with tact, and handle trespassers safely and respectfully


• De-escalate conflicts and respond to tenant or customer concerns, resolving or escalating as needed


• Respond to medical emergencies with First Aid, CPR, or AED until emergency services arrive, and assist police and emergency services


• Keep a detailed memo book, write clear incident and occurrence reports, and follow site-specific procedures

What You Bring

• Valid British Columbia Security Worker Licence


• Valid Occupational First Aid (OFA) Level 1 certificate (or willing to obtain before starting)


• Legally entitled to work in Canada


• A proven record of reliability and punctuality


• A customer-service mindset and a positive, professional attitude


• Strong spoken and written English, including report writing


• Ability to meet the physical requirements of the assigned post, which may include standing, walking, and foot patrols during 8–12 hour shifts, with or without accommodation


• Calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable working alone or as part of a team


• Open to feedback and committed to continuous improvement

Nice to Have

• Previous security experience (1+ year preferred)


• Experience in a commercial office tower or multi-tenant building


• Concierge, front desk, or hospitality experience


• Loss prevention or retail security experience


• Leadership or supervisory experience

We thank all applicants; only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
