Security Officers (Part & Full-Time Shifts)

Merchants Security Service is a local company that offers a caring personal feel that the mega companies cannot. We have been serving in and around Dayton since 1901.
Merchants Security Service provides uniformed security officers to the Dayton and surrounding community. While we primarily observe and report, customer service and a smile are a must. We offer full- or part-time positions. We are flexible depending on your needs. We pride ourselves in working with our veterans. If you are currently serving or recently retired, we encourage you to apply. While experience in security is helpful, we also offer training to those who are first timers in our industry.
Great job for individuals who need a flexible schedule for school, semi-retired/retired individuals and also great for those planning to go into the Criminal Justice field.
By working together with our employees, we feel like Merchants Security Service is the destination for those looking to work in our field.
