Securitas is a globally recognized security services company with over 80 years of experience in providing exceptional protection services to homes, workplaces, and communities. Headquartered in the United States, Securitas operates with a clear mission to safeguard assets, protect people, and help businesses maintain their operational and financial integrity. The company prides itself on a corporate culture that emphasizes Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness—core values that guide every employee's actions and interactions.

Securitas is committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where diversity, equity, and belonging are prioritized, ensuring every employee is treated with respect and given equal opportunity to succeed.

The SOC Operator position is a pivotal role within Securitas, responsible for managing and operating Security Command Centers (SCCs) located in Newark and Moorestown, New Jersey. This full-time role operates Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering a competitive pay rate of $37.00 per hour. The position focuses on maintaining safe and secure environments for clients by conducting law enforcement radio monitoring with event logging and recording, monitoring alarm systems for intrusion detection, emergency dispatching, incident reporting, analysis, and remote alarm panel programming.

This role requires operational leadership and hands-on responsibility for Security Command Center functions, including overseeing personnel performance, recruitment, and training, ensuring adherence to regulatory compliance such as NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP), and managing technical systems like access control, CCTV, intercom, and radio communications.

A key part of the job involves the use of complex technology systems such as AMAG NERC Access Control, Dataminr External Situational Awareness Tool, and the AMAG/Symmetry Access Control Integration System. The role also includes participation in audit functions, compliance reporting, and contributing to the development and revision of business processes related to regulatory demands, including Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.

The ability to communicate professionally with diverse stakeholders, maintain vigilance and attention to detail throughout shifts, and flexibility in work responsibilities are essential traits for success in this role.

Securitas offers employees robust benefits including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, along with paid time off, 401K retirement plans, employee assistance programs, and additional perks like telemedicine, paid training, and uniform provisions. The company values and invests in its workforce, ensuring a supportive environment where safety and professional growth are prioritized.
