Event Security Officer

$18 - $20 per hour

Signal of Wilmington DE-450

Newark, DE

Job Description

Event Security Specialist (On-Call/Standby)

Location: Wilmington, DE (Events held statewide) Pay Rate: $18.00 – $20.00 per hour

Employment Type: Part-Time / Event-Based

Overview

Signal of Wilmington is seeking professional, high-visibility Event Security Specialists to join our elite "First Choice" standby roster. We provide security for a variety of monthly events ranging from festivals and concerts to private corporate gatherings across the state of Delaware.

This is not a traditional 40-hour desk job. We are looking for individuals with a strong physical presence and the tactical communication skills necessary to manage large crowds and maintain a safe, enjoyable environment for all attendees.

Key Responsibilities

Crowd Management: Monitor guest flow, manage entry points, and ensure "no-go" zones remain secure.
Active Presence: Maintain a highly visible, professional stance to deter disruptive behavior before it starts.
De-escalation: Use professional communication to resolve conflicts and handle intoxicated or unruly patrons.
Emergency Response: Act as a first responder in the event of medical emergencies or safety hazards, coordinating closely with local law enforcement if necessary.
Perimeter Integrity: Conduct regular patrols of the event space to identify and report potential security vulnerabilities.

Who You Are

Commanding Presence: You carry yourself with authority and confidence.
Alert & Proactive: You don’t wait for trouble to find you; you spot risks early.
Reliable: Since this is a standby/first-choice role, we need people who show up on time, every time, ready to work.
Mobile: You are willing to travel to various event locations throughout Delaware.

Requirements

Previous experience in security, law enforcement, or military is highly preferred.
Ability to stand and walk for extended periods (6–10 hours depending on the event).
Must have reliable transportation and a clean background check.
Valid Delaware Security Guard License (Yellow Card) or the ability to obtain one is required.
Must have smart phone with data to use throughout the shift.

Why Join the Signal Roster?

As a "First Choice" team member, you will be our priority contact for all Delaware events. This is an ideal role for those looking for high-paying supplemental income with a flexible schedule.

Salary : $18.00 - $20.00 per hour
