- Scheduling: Manage and administer scheduling activities for supervised sites and personnel.
- Incident Reporting: Document all site visits, inspections, and security incidents using digital logging software.

- Compliance: Ensure all armed personnel maintain current licensing, certifications, and adherence to company and state firearm policies.
Requirements:
- Active LTC (License to Carry) in Massachusetts, in good standing.
- Firearm Qualification: Must pass and maintain required firearms training and qualification.
- Experience: Minimum of 1-3 years in security, with prior armed post or supervisory experience highly preferred.
- Clean Driving Record: Valid driver's license with a clean driving history required for regional travel between sites.
- Open Availability: Flexibility to work a fluid schedule averaging 40–50 hours per week across mornings, afternoons, and evenings, with weekend, holiday, and on-call availability.

- Leads by example and holds others accountable.
- Can make sound decisions under pressure without constant supervision.
- Communicates professionally with clients, officers, and management.
- Understands that exceptional customer service is just as important as security.
- Is willing to step in wherever needed, including onto an armed post, to ensure our clients receive uninterrupted service.
- Takes pride in maintaining high standards, professionalism, and integrity.
