We are in need of a Armed Security Officer to work a special event in Franklin, KY for the week of September 1st-September 7th. This will be a special event with 10-14 hour shifts and the potential at 45-60 hours for the week. This is $1500-$2000 for the week with overtime. We do have a long term contract at this venue so there is a potential for future on call shifts/events. Event is 12pm-2am so your shift will be staggered during these times.

Join us as a Special Event Armed Security Officer and be a vital part of ensuring the safety and security of high-profile events. This dynamic role requires a proactive, alert, and professional individual ready to provide top-tier security services during a major event scheduled from September 1st to September 7th. You will be responsible for maintaining a secure environment through vigilant surveillance, access control, and rapid emergency response. If you thrive in fast-paced settings and possess a strong background in armed security, law enforcement, or military experience, this opportunity is perfect for you to showcase your skills and make a significant impact.

Duties

Conduct thorough surveillance using CCTV systems and perform regular patrols to monitor event areas for suspicious activity or security breaches.
Manage access control systems to verify credentials, perform background checks on personnel, and ensure only authorized individuals enter restricted zones.
Respond swiftly to emergencies by executing established procedures such as fire safety protocols, medical emergencies, or conflict situations.
Handle physical security measures including manual handling of equipment, heavy lifting when necessary, and maintaining secure perimeters.
Write detailed incident reports documenting any security breaches, disturbances, or safety concerns encountered during shifts.
Operate specialized security tools such as Tasers, firearms (where legally permitted), AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators), and CPR equipment to assist in emergency situations.
Enforce compliance with all security regulations and event policies while providing excellent customer service to attendees and staff alike.

Qualifications

Proven experience in armed security, law enforcement, military service, or related fields with knowledge of surveillance techniques and physical security protocols.
Valid certifications in firearm handling, Taser use, CPR/AED certification, first aid training, and conflict de-escalation techniques.
Familiarity with access control systems, CCTV monitoring, incident report writing, and loss prevention strategies.
Ability to perform manual handling tasks including heavy lifting and maintaining physical readiness for extended patrols.
Strong communication skills with the ability to manage conflicts professionally and de-escalate tense situations effectively.
Knowledge of emergency response procedures including fire safety protocols and first aid procedures.
Must be able to pass background checks and meet all legal requirements for armed security personnel in the jurisdiction.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to leverage your security expertise in a high-energy environment while ensuring the safety of all event participants. We value your dedication to maintaining a secure atmosphere through vigilance, professionalism, and exceptional service delivery.
