Key Responsibilities

• Maintain a visible security presence. Remain attentive within assigned areas, observe event activity, and promptly report suspicious behavior, disturbances, or safety concerns to supervisors.

• Provide professional guest assistance. Offer directions, answer general event-related questions, and communicate event rules courteously and consistently.

• Respond appropriately to concerns and incidents. Use professional communication and de-escalation techniques, request assistance when necessary, and act within the scope of assigned duties and training.

• Follow post orders and reporting procedures. Maintain communication with supervisors and fellow officers, follow emergency instructions, and complete clear, accurate incident reports or activity logs when required.

Required Licenses and Training Documentation

California Guard Card

Applicants must possess a physical copy of a current, valid California Guard Card, available for verification. A Guard Card number alone does not satisfy the physical Guard Card requirement.

Applicants must provide documentation confirming successful completion of Power to Arrest (PTA) and Appropriate Use of Force (AUOF) training that meets applicable BSIS requirements.

A combined PTA/AUOF certificate is accepted. Training documentation must be available for verification and is required for consideration under Treston Security Services’ hiring standards, subject to applicable legal exemptions.

Punctuality, attentiveness, and reliable attendance for accepted shifts are essential.

Preferred Experience

Previous event security experience is preferred, particularly experience supporting concerts, festivals, access control, crowd management, or guest assistance.

Previous customer service experience is also preferred, including experience interacting with the public, answering questions, and addressing concerns professionally.

Neither event security nor customer service experience is required. Applicants without prior experience may be considered if they meet the required licensing, training-documentation, availability, and other qualifications.
