Employment Opportunity

At Inter-Con we take pride in providing customized security solutions for our clients. To us, that means the right officer is in the right place and at the right time. In many cases our clients desire a softer security plan that meets their values and needs, but where high value people and assets are involved, others may prefer a more obvious security presence. As an Unarmed Security Officer, you will be part of a highly trained security team that supports critical facilities and infrastructure, public venues that require an enhanced presence and personal protective services.
