Transportation: Must have your own reliable personal vehicle to guarantee punctual arrival on-site.
Experience: Background in security, asset protection, construction safety, military, or law enforcement preferred.
Vigilance & Reliability: Strong work ethic, high alertness, and the ability to work independently outdoors/overnight without direct supervision.
