Collaborate with store management and law enforcement agencies as required to resolve security issues effectively.
Maintain a visible presence to deter theft and promote a secure shopping environment.

Strong report writing skills with the ability to document incidents accurately and clearly.
First aid certification or the ability to respond effectively in medical emergencies.
Excellent observational skills with keen attention to detail.
Good communication skills, able to liaise professionally with colleagues, customers, and authorities.
