- Check incident and occurrence reports for accuracy and timeliness before they go to clients
- Run lone worker welfare checks and pre-shift vehicle and equipment checks
- Make sure every officer on shift holds a current licence and site induction, and raise site issues early
- Step into patrols and respond yourself when the team needs it

- Experience with corporate and commercial patrol clients in Brisbane
What we offer
