Sheepdog Protective Services is seeking dependable, professional, and motivated individuals to join our growing team as Part-Time Security Officers.

We provide professional security services to a variety of clients throughout Western North Carolina, including commercial properties, residential communities, businesses, special events, and other facilities.

This position is ideal for individuals looking for supplemental income, flexible scheduling, or an opportunity to gain experience in the private security industry.

IMPORTANT – LOCATION FLEXIBILITY & AVAILABLE HOURS

Our client locations are spread throughout the region, and available shifts vary based on operational needs.

Applicants who are willing and able to travel to multiple client locations will have significantly more opportunities to pick up shifts and earn additional hours.

While we do our best to accommodate scheduling and location preferences, officers who limit their availability to specific days, times, or geographic areas may experience fewer available shifts.

This is a part-time position, and a specific number of hours per week is not guaranteed. Officers who demonstrate reliability, flexibility, and a willingness to assist at different locations will be better positioned for additional scheduling opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain a professional, visible security presence at assigned client locations.
• Conduct foot and vehicle patrols as required by site-specific post orders.
• Monitor properties for suspicious activity, safety concerns, and unauthorized access.
• Respond appropriately to incidents, disturbances, emergencies, and requests for assistance.
• Complete accurate and timely daily activity reports and incident reports using company-provided technology.
• Enforce client rules and property policies professionally and respectfully.
• Provide excellent customer service while maintaining a safety-focused approach.
• Communicate effectively with supervisors, fellow officers, clients, and emergency responders.
• Follow all company policies, procedures, and site-specific post orders.
• Maintain a professional appearance and properly wear assigned uniforms and equipment.

Minimum Qualifications

• Must be at least 18 years of age.
• Must be legally eligible to work in the United States.
• Must be able to meet North Carolina Private Protective Services Board registration requirements.
• Must successfully complete required background screening.
• Must possess reliable transportation to and from assigned client locations.
• Must be able to communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing.
• Must be comfortable using smartphones and mobile applications for reporting, communication, and patrol documentation.
• Must demonstrate professionalism, dependability, sound judgment, and attention to detail.
• Must be able to work independently with minimal supervision.
• Must be physically capable of standing, walking, and conducting patrols for extended periods, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Previous security, military, law enforcement, corrections, or emergency services experience is preferred but not required.

We operate around the clock, including weekends and holidays. Available shifts may include daytime, evening, overnight, and special event assignments.

We are particularly interested in applicants who:

• Have flexible availability, including nights and weekends.
• Are willing to accept shifts at multiple client locations.
• Can occasionally assist with short-notice coverage needs.
• Communicate their availability consistently.
• Follow through on accepted assignments and maintain dependable attendance.

The more flexible you are with your schedule and travel area, the more opportunities you will generally have to work.
