Security Officer

Alright, let's talk about this part time armed patrol role in Birmingham, AL. It's not just standing at a door. You're the mobile presence for a tech and telecom site, which means you're moving, observing, and helping keep things secure. The schedule's set for overnight weekends, but there's a real tool to pick up extra hours if you want them.

The Work

• A big part of this is customer service. You're interacting with all personnel and visitors, carrying out site procedures.
