Unarmed Security Officer Part-Time

Location: Asheboro, NC 27205

Who We Are

Piedmont Protective Services is a privately owned security company providing professional security services throughout North and South Carolina. We partner with businesses, manufacturers, healthcare providers, residential communities, educational institutions, construction sites, and special events to deliver reliable security solutions tailored to each client's unique needs.

Our leadership team is composed of experienced security professionals and former public safety leaders who have spent their careers supervising personnel, managing complex operations, and serving the communities in which they worked. That experience influences every aspect of our organization, from how we support our employees to how we build lasting partnerships with our clients.

We believe effective security begins with effective leadership. That means providing our officers with clear expectations, ongoing communication, practical training, responsive supervision, and the resources they need to succeed. We recognize that our employees are the foundation of our company, and we are committed to creating a professional environment built on mutual respect, accountability, and open communication. By supporting our officers, we will strengthen the service we provide to every client.

Our goal has never been to simply fill positions. Our goal is to build a team of professionals our clients trust and our employees are proud to be part of.

Unlike many companies where decisions are made from a distant corporate office, our leadership team remains actively involved in daily operations. We work closely with our clients, stay connected with our officers, and believe that accessibility, accountability, and responsiveness are essential to building long-term relationships.

Whether you are beginning your career in private security or bringing experience from military service, law enforcement, emergency services, or the security industry, you'll find an organization that values professionalism, continuous improvement, and people who take pride in their work.

At Piedmont Protective Services, we measure success by the trust we earn, the relationships we build, and the quality of service we provide every day.

About This Position

This position is located at a community college in Asheboro, NC 27205. The facility requires security officers to maintain a professional presence while helping protect students, visitors, assets, equipment, and property.

Every client and assignment is different, and we believe applicants should understand the work environment before applying. Some positions involve frequent interaction with employees, visitors, customers, or residents throughout the day, while others are better suited for officers who prefer working independently with limited public contact. Our goal is to match the right officer with the right assignment whenever possible, creating a positive experience for both our employees and our clients.

Officers assigned to this location should expect to:

• Conduct foot and/or vehicle patrols of the assigned property.
• Monitor entrances, exits, gates, and other access control points.
• Greet and assist employees, visitors, vendors, contractors, or customers in a professional manner.
• Observe and report suspicious activity, safety hazards, security concerns, or policy violations.
• Complete accurate daily activity reports and incident documentation.
• Respond appropriately to alarms, emergencies, and other security-related incidents.
• Perform additional site-specific responsibilities as assigned.

Typical Schedule

• Shift: Sunday 6:30am to 7:30pm, Friday 2:30pm to 7:30pm & Saturday 6:30am to 7:30pm
• Hours: 31 hours per week

As a contract security provider, work schedules are based on our clients' operational needs. While we strive to provide consistency whenever possible, some flexibility may be required. Additional hours, overtime opportunities, and schedule adjustments may become available based on client requirements and operational needs.

Compensation

Starting Pay: $15.00 per hour.

Compensation is based on the assigned position, licensing requirements, experience, qualifications, certifications, and the specific responsibilities of the assignment.

At Piedmont Protective Services, we recognize and reward professionalism, reliability, initiative, and outstanding performance. As our company continues to grow, employees who demonstrate leadership, accountability, and a commitment to excellence are encouraged to pursue opportunities for advancement within the organization.

Who Will Succeed Here

This assignment is best suited for someone who enjoys working independently.

Successful officers at this location are:

• Dependable and punctual.
• Professional in appearance and demeanor.
• Observant and detail oriented.
• Comfortable making sound decisions independently.
• Effective communicators.
• Customer service oriented.
• Calm under pressure.
• Proud of the work they perform.

While previous security, military, or public safety experience is valuable, we place equal importance on integrity, professionalism, reliability, and a willingness to learn. We can teach site procedures and job responsibilities. The character, work ethic, and attitude you bring to the position are what set exceptional officers apart.

Minimum Qualifications

Applicants must meet the following minimum qualifications:

• Be at least 18 years of age.
• Possess a valid driver's license.
• Have reliable transportation.
• Be legally authorized to work in the United States.
