Security Command Center Operator

$27.54 per hour

This is essentially a security operations + customer support role . You’re not physically guarding sites—you’re monitoring systems, responding to incidents, and coordinating help from a control center . Must work on-site and be flexible to work days/nights and fill in when needed.

This is a 24/7 control center role where you monitor security systems, respond to alarms, coordinate emergency response, and handle high-volume communication—combining security operations with call center–style customer support.

Description

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Monitors Physical Security Information Management (PSIM) system for alerts, alarms, and other events.

• Responds to alarm events and security situations based on Standard Operating Procedures or policies.

• Coordinates Law Enforcement response to criminal and security incidents.

• Makes notifications to various internal and external people or groups.

• Operates CCTV cameras to ascertain the cause of events and coordinate response to those.

• Performs access management tasks in the assigned systems to create badges, assign access, and remove access based on policies.

• Central Point of Contact for the Corporate Security team. Answers phone calls, text messages, and emails regarding security and access management.

• Fill out appropriate logs, reports, and other documents to properly report on the activities of the Security Command Center.

• Identify and report any broken, damaged, or non-operational security equipment for repair.

• Visitor Check in at designated locations.

• Works with internal and external customers to assist with questions, concerns, and other reports.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

People who work in call centers are typically not the best for this role because they need to be very scripted. If you are targeting a call center candidate they need to be a resolution specialist or able to give instructions and advice within the parameters of PSE without any additional assistance or supervision. If they are a "let me see what my manager says" type person, not going to be the strongest fit either. There needs to be a high level of self sufficiency post training.

Biggest disqualifier is someone that has multiple jobs in the same year or less then a year without good explanation or resume's that aren't well put together.

SUMMARY

Is responsible for the 24x7 monitoring of all physical and electronic security systems reporting to the Security Command Center (SCC). Works with internal and external customers to assist with a wide range of physical security matters. Communicates via phone, text messages, and emails to all levels within the organization and externally. Performs access management tasks including badge creation, assignment of access, and removal of access based on policies and procedures. Intakes reports of suspicious, criminal , or other security matters. Coordinates law enforcement, security, and internal response to a variety of security incidents.

Upholds the safety compliance standards inherent in PSE’s operating and/or field procedures related to work responsibilities. Promotes and supports a culture of total safety.
