Job Description

UNITED PROTECTION AGENCY

NOW HIRING – 3605 w . Fillmore at UCAN CAMPUS

Protect. De-Escalate. Serve with Purpose.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHERE IT MATTERS MOST

United Protection Agency (UPA) is actively hiring professional Security Officers for assignment at the UCAN Campus, a youth-focused, trauma-informed environment. This is not just a security job—this is a mission-driven role requiring discipline, empathy, and advanced crisis-prevention skills.

Valid State ID (PERC preferred or eligible)

Ability to pass background screening

Reliable transportation
