There are two main types of security officer roles, static and mobile patrols. Static security guards, despite the title of their role, are not always stationary. ‘Static’ refers to the location in which they are guarding as it doesn’t change, as opposed to mobile security officers who are often guarding a larger area and covering multiple sites. A large priority for mobile patrols is key holding and alarm response, this prevents inconvenience for companies with single or multiple buildings as well as residential properties as they can trust RISK Management to respond out of hours and deal with any situation that may have occurred.

At RISK Management Security Services we offer job roles for both static and mobile security officers. A typical static security guard job role includes a customer facing service as it often requires meeting and greeting our client’s guests at the building that is being guarded such as a corporate head office or business park. Typical duties may include controlling access to the site, responding to alarms, incident handling and other general security-related tasks.

A mobile security job role with RISK Management often includes general security checks of multiple sites, performing lockdowns, key holding and emergency alarm response. This job role is perfect for an individual that is organised, professional and enjoys driving.
