Corporate Security Officer

Company Description Metro One Security is a privately owned, living-wage employer that has grown since 1994 from a local guard-based firm into a nationally recognized leader in retail loss prevention, trusted by many of the top U.S. retailers. The company is known for disciplined hiring and training practices and for strategies that focus on preventing loss rather than simply reacting to incidents. All operations are supported by Aurix, a proprietary automation platform that enhances prevention, detection, and reporting across client sites. Metro One integrates closely with retail operations—from dock to display, during store openings, and through seasonal surges—to protect people, products, and profitability. Team members join an organization that values reliability, consistency, and proactive adaptation to emerging threats.

The Officer will respond to incidents, document security events, and collaborate with store and corporate management to support loss prevention initiatives. The role involves using security technologies and reporting tools, following established post orders, and maintaining clear, professional communication with clients, colleagues, and visitors. The Corporate Security Officer is expected to present a professional demeanor, adhere to company policies, and support Metro One’s commitment to proactive risk mitigation.
