Job Description

GardaWorld Security Services is a global leader in providing sophisticated and tailored security solutions to a wide range of clients around the world. With a commitment to employing and training highly skilled and dedicated security professionals, GardaWorld has established itself as a trusted name in the security industry. The company prides itself on creating a workplace culture that values safety, professionalism, and career growth, which is reflected in its certification as a Great Place to Work. GardaWorld offers a diverse array of security roles, including tactical, concierge, casual, and frontline security positions, ensuring that there is a place for different skills and career aspirations within the company. The corporate environment supports ambitious individuals who possess an entrepreneurial spirit and who seek to grow into roles of responsibility within the organization.

The role of Surveillance Security Officer at GardaWorld is critical to maintaining safety and security across various environments such as security operations centers, call centers, parking gatehouses, and more. The Surveillance Security Officer plays an essential part in spotting potential threats before they escalate by vigilantly monitoring multiple screens and security systems. This position requires a high level of concentration, sharp observation skills, and the ability to document and report incidents accurately. Working at the El Paso, Texas site, the Surveillance Security Officer will have a structured schedule requiring availability from Monday to Sunday, including swing and overnight shifts, totaling approximately 20 hours per week on a part-time basis. The hourly wage is competitive at $13 per hour, with additional options like DailyPay available for employees. Alongside competitive pay, employees receive a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance plans; a 401(k) retirement savings plan with employer matching contributions; paid time off including holidays; disability coverage; and life insurance options. GardaWorld Security also provides uniforms at no cost, supporting their team to present themselves professionally and uniformly in the field.

This position is ideal for those who have previous experience in security, military, or law enforcement fields, although it is accessible to those who can demonstrate strong observation and report writing skills alongside technological proficiency. Successful completion of an extensive screening process is required for employment, which includes a background check and drug screening. GardaWorld is devoted to diversity and equal employment opportunities, respecting all applicants regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, veteran status, or disability, and complies with all applicable federal, state, and local employment laws. The organization’s code of conduct ensures equal treatment in terms and conditions of employment such as hiring, promotion, compensation, and training. The Surveillance Security Officer role is more than a job at GardaWorld — it is a promising career opportunity for ambitious individuals who want to become ambassadors of the brand and contribute to a safer community.
