Unarmed Security Guard - SF

About the role

Your Security. Our Mission. Worldwide. Global Secure 3 is an international security and risk management firm headquartered in San Francisco, with strategic resources in financial centers around the globe. We partner with clients across technology, finance, healthcare, retail, and hospitality to protect people, property, and experiences. Events are where our officers are most visible. From corporate conferences and product launches to private gatherings and large public events, GS3 officers are often the first and last people guests interact with. We are growing our San Francisco event team and are looking for experienced Unarmed Event Security Guards to join our on-call flex roster. This is an on-call flex position for officers who have worked events before and know what it takes. Event security requires two skills at once: staying alert and ready to act on any security concern, and delivering warm, patient customer service to every guest who walks through the door. The right person can greet hundreds of guests with a smile, answer the same question for the fiftieth time with the same patience, and still notice the one situation that needs attention. When something happens, you stay calm, act quickly, and follow procedure. What stays constant is the standard: alert, welcoming, and visibly professional security that protects our clients and represents the GS3 brand at every event.
