Position Summary
At our company, we believe armed security is about far more than carrying a firearm.
We are seeking highly professional individuals who can assess situations, make sound decisions under pressure, communicate effectively, and protect people with confidence and professionalism.
Our Armed Security Professionals serve as trusted safety partners for our clients, helping maintain secure environments while representing the highest standards of integrity, vigilance, and customer service.
If you're looking for a company that values professionalism, invests in training, and offers real opportunities for growth, we'd like to speak with you.

Why Join us?
At our company, we are redefining the security industry through:
  • Emotional intelligence
  • Advanced de-escalation techniques
  • Professional development
  • Operational excellence
  • People-first security solutions
We believe the best security professionals are not simply responders—they are problem-solvers, communicators, and leaders who know how to prevent incidents before they occur.

What You'll Do
As an Armed Security Professional, you will play a critical role in protecting people, property, and operations while maintaining a calm and professional presence.
Responsibilities include:
  • Conducting patrols and security checks to prevent unauthorized activity

  • Responding appropriately to alarms, incidents, and emergencies
  • Assessing situations quickly and making sound decisions under pressure
  • Utilizing de-escalation techniques to resolve conflicts safely and professionally
  • Collaborating with law enforcement and emergency personnel when necessary
  • Conducting access control and identification verification
  • Preparing detailed incident and activity reports
  • Maintaining security equipment and reporting deficiencies
  • Supporting investigations through accurate documentation and information gathering
What Makes a Successful Armed Security Professional?
The most successful candidates are:
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Calm under pressure
  • Observant and detail-oriented
  • Professional in appearance and communication
  • Capable of making critical decisions during emergencies
  • Strong communicators
  • Committed to ongoing training and development
  • Focused on prevention rather than reaction
We are looking for professionals who understand that effective security combines vigilance, judgment, and exceptional people skills.
Required Qualifications
  • Active Tennessee Armed Security License
  • Dallas Law Certification
  • Valid Driver's License
  • Reliable transportation
  • Experience conducting patrols and managing security incidents
  • Strong report-writing and documentation skills
  • Knowledge of emergency response procedures
