Job Summary
RECRUITER SEARCH GUIDE
1. Ideal Candidate Profile
Target currently employed or recently active armed security officers in the St. Louis area who have a valid City of St. Louis armed guard card and can document the required T3 background check. Federal contract security personnel with overnight post coverage, patrol, and incident-response experience are especially relevant. Do not assume military or law-enforcement service alone satisfies the two credential requirements.
2. Must-Haves / Preferred
Must-haves:
- Valid City of St. Louis armed guard card
- Possess Tier 3 (T3) government background check
- Valid driver’s license and clean driving record
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Ability to work overnight and pass required physical/live-fire tests
Preferred: None explicitly specified in the job description.
3. Alternate Job Titles
- Armed Security Officer
- Armed Security Guard
- Federal Contract Security Officer
- Protective Security Officer
- Armed Patrol Officer
4. Target Companies / Industries
Search federal contract security providers, armed guard services, government facility security contractors, and employers with overnight armed posts in greater St. Louis. Examples to research for candidate sourcing include firms serving federal buildings and military-adjacent facilities; confirm individual credentials rather than relying on employer history.
5. Simple Boolean Searches
- ("Armed Security Officer" OR "Armed Security Guard") AND "St. Louis"
- "Security Officer" AND "armed guard card"
- "Security Officer" AND "Tier 3"
- "Federal Security Officer" AND patrol
