Unitus Security | Atlanta, GA

Unitus Security, Georgia’s Premier Security Guard Service for Class A commercial and mixed‑use properties, is seeking a District Director to lead multiple sites, develop leaders, and ensure operational excellence across a dynamic portfolio.

This is not a desk role.

This is a high‑visibility, high‑accountability leadership position responsible for overseeing Security Directors, supporting sites without on‑site leadership, and ensuring that every location operates at the level our clients expect—and deserve.

We provide security with a hospitality mindset , and we are looking for a leader who can execute at a high level while developing others to do the same.

What You Will Do

As a District Director, you will be responsible for full operational ownership across multiple properties , including:

• Oversee multiple client locations, ensuring consistency in service delivery and compliance
• Directly manage Security Directors and step in to lead sites without Directors
• Ensure 24/7 operational coverage aligned with contract requirements
• Conduct regular site visits, audits, and performance reviews

People Leadership & Accountability

• Lead, coach, and develop Directors and site leadership teams
• Hold teams accountable for attendance, performance, and documentation standards
• Enforce policies consistently, including uniform, conduct, and reporting expectations
• Identify and develop future leaders within the organization

Client Partnership

• Serve as the escalation point for client concerns
• Build strong relationships with property management partners, including organizations such as CBRE
• Ensure timely, professional communication and proactive problem‑solving
• Participate in client meetings and property‑level strategy discussions

Operational Execution

• Partner with recruiting to maintain proper staffing levels across all sites
• Monitor scheduling, overtime, and coverage gaps
• Ensure all incidents are properly reported, documented, and addressed
• Maintain alignment between operations, HR, and payroll processes

What We Are Looking For

This role requires someone who can operate at both a strategic and hands‑on level .

• Proven experience managing multiple sites or locations simultaneously
• Experience leading leaders (Directors, Supervisors, or equivalent)
• Strong understanding of operations, staffing, and performance management
• Ability to make decisions quickly in a 24/7, fast‑paced environment
• Strong communication skills across all levels—officers to executives
• High level of ownership, accountability, and professionalism

Minimum Qualifications

• 3–5+ years of leadership experience in security, operations, or a related field
• Prior experience managing multi‑site operations required
• High school diploma required (college preferred)
• Valid driver’s license and ability to travel between sites
• Must pass background check and drug screening

What You Should Expect

• This is a field‑driven leadership role with regular travel between sites
• Schedules are driven by operational needs , including nights and weekends as required
• You will be expected to step into challenging situations and lead from the front
• Success in this role is measured by site performance, client satisfaction, and team stability
