About Omega Guard Services
Omega Guard Services provides professional security for Charleston’s top restaurants, nightlife venues, and high-traffic hospitality environments, along with notable high-end residential and commercial properties.

Our focus is simple. Strong presence, clear standards, and consistent execution.

We are not a warm body company. Our officers are trained to operate in fast-paced, high-visibility environments where professionalism, judgment, and accountability matter.

If you take pride in how you show up and how you carry yourself, Omega may be a fit.

Position Overview
Security Officers at Omega are responsible for maintaining control, safety, and professionalism at some of the busiest and most visible venues in the city.

This is not a passive role. You are part of the front-facing operation. You set the tone at the door, manage entry, support staff, and handle issues before they escalate.

You are expected to be alert, composed, and consistent in how you operate.

All new hires go through a structured onboarding process that includes classroom instruction, site-specific expectations, and hands-on field training with experienced officers.

What We’re Looking For
We hire selectively. The right candidates are:

Reliable and on time every shift
Professional in appearance, communication, and conduct
Calm and controlled under pressure
Comfortable managing people and enforcing rules without hesitation
Situationally aware and able to read environments quickly
Coachable and able to follow direction and post orders
Hospitality-minded while still maintaining control of the environment

Experience in nightlife, restaurants, or customer-facing roles is a strong plus. Security experience helps but is not required. We train the right people.

Key Responsibilities
Depending on the venue, responsibilities may include:

Managing entry points and controlling access
Checking IDs and verifying age compliance
Monitoring crowd flow, occupancy, and guest behavior
Supporting venue staff with enforcement decisions and removals
Maintaining a visible, professional presence at all times
Conducting patrols of interior and exterior areas
Documenting incidents clearly and professionally
Responding to issues quickly and appropriately
Interacting with guests in a way that reflects well on the venue and Omega

Training and Standards
Omega operates with clear expectations:

Structured onboarding and site-specific training
SLED Primary Basic and Primary Plus certification required and provided
Ongoing performance evaluation based on reliability, conduct, and execution
Strict attendance standards. If you are not dependable, this will not be a fit

We invest in training and expect that same level of commitment in return.

Requirements

Ability to pass a background check and drug screening
Ability to obtain and maintain a SLED Primary Plus Security Registration
Ability to stand, walk, and remain engaged for extended periods
Availability for nights, weekends, and peak hours

Schedule and Availability Expectations

Full-time and part-time roles available
Consistent availability is required
Frequent call-outs and last-minute cancellations are not acceptable in this role

Perks and Benefits

Competitive hourly pay
Flexible scheduling within reliability expectations
Paid training and development
Clear path into Team Lead, Training, and leadership roles
Work in some of Charleston’s most active and high-profile venues

If you are looking for professional security work where standards are enforced, performance matters, and you are part of the operation, not just standing around, we want to hear from you.

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time

Pay: $19.00 - $22.00 per hour

Benefits:

Employee discount
Flexible schedule
Referral program
