Job Description

Contemporary Services Corporation (CSC) is an employee-owned company that specializes in providing comprehensive security services, guest services, and crowd management solutions. Operating extensively across Northern Nevada, CSC services a variety of venues and events, including conventions, concerts, festivals, sports facilities, special events, and 24/7 venue and construction site security. With a strong commitment to professionalism, integrity, and exceptional service, CSC has established itself as a leader in crowd management and security services. CSC prides itself on an inclusive work culture where every team member is valued and treated with respect, supporting an environment that promotes growth and employee ownership through its unique Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).

The role of Event Security Guard at CSC is designed for individuals who are dependable, friendly, courteous, and helpful. Event Security Guards play a crucial part in maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for attendees, clients, and staff at a diverse range of events. This part-time position is perfect for candidates seeking flexible work hours while gaining experience working at some of the most exciting and high-profile events in the Reno Tahoe area, such as UNR football and basketball games, concerts, festivals, conventions, and sporting events. Employees in this role have the freedom to select venues, events, and shifts that best fit their schedule. With a competitive hourly wage ranging from $18.00 to $22.00, plus the opportunity to earn stock options through the ESOP, the position offers attractive financial benefits.

Event Security Guards at CSC are responsible for a variety of duties, including access control, security screening, asset protection, and venue security. In addition, they support front and back of house credential areas, manage stage barricades, provide VIP escorts, and work within roving response teams to ensure rapid assistance when needed. The role demands a high level of professionalism and the ability to handle challenging situations, such as dealing with disorderly or impaired guests. CSC supports its guards with thorough orientation and training programs to prepare them for the dynamic nature of the job.

Because CSC adheres strictly to State of Nevada regulations, all Event Security Guards must possess or be willing to obtain a valid Private Investigator License Board (PILB) Work Card. This requirement ensures compliance with local laws and maintains the highest standards of security service. The job requires physical stamina, including standing for long periods, walking stairs, and working outdoors in various weather conditions. Candidates should be comfortable working evenings, weekends, holidays, or during late-night events, as needed. CSC fosters a team-oriented environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer, welcoming applicants from all backgrounds without discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, or veteran status.

Joining CSC as a part-time Event Security Guard means becoming part of a well-respected and employee-focused company that offers flexible work schedules, meaningful event experiences, and opportunities for financial growth. Whether working at concerts, sporting events, conventions, or large-scale festivals, CSC employees are integral to creating safe and enjoyable experiences for the public.
