  • Demonstrate the ability to quickly adapt to different assignments and staffing needs.
  • Serve as a dependable backup resource for management during peak shopping periods and critical incidents.

Retail Environment Expectations

  • Provide a highly visible security presence to deter theft and criminal activity.
  • Monitor juveniles and enforce parental accompaniment policies when applicable.
  • Respond to shoplifting incidents and coordinate with law enforcement when necessary.
  • Manage crowd control during promotions, holiday shopping periods, special events, and product releases.
  • Address disruptive behavior, loitering, solicitation, and unauthorized vendors.
  • Monitor for safety issues such as spills, maintenance hazards, and fire code violations.
  • Maintain positive customer relations while enforcing policies professionally.
  • Support tenant concerns and provide rapid response to service requests.

Preferred Skills
