About This Role
This is a live-in security leadership role at a foundation facility in Sheger City, requiring someone who can provide around-the-clock oversight and immediate emergency response. It suits a disciplined, hands-on professional who values presence over policy paperwork and is comfortable managing both people and surveillance systems in a residential institutional setting. The role combines supervisory duties with active security operations, making it ideal for someone who wants full ownership of a facility’s safety.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The posting signals a need for someone who can lead by example rather than just delegate from an office—24/7 residence implies personal accountability and readiness for any hour disruptions. The junior-level seniority suggests the foundation values practical security experience and reliability over formal management credentials, so a candidate with 1–3 years in security, incident response, or guard supervision is likely preferred. The emphasis on discipline and alertness points to a profile that is physically present, mentally sharp, and capable of handling stress without external support.
How to Approach This Application
In your application, lead with examples of incident management and shift supervision, not just theoretical knowledge of security protocols. Mention any experience living on-site or managing 24-hour security operations, as this directly addresses the residency requirement. Emphasize your ability to enforce policies consistently while maintaining calm under pressure—employers here will prioritize trustworthiness and vigilance over academic qualifications.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for a security professional with at least 1–3 years of field experience who is willing to live on-site and take full operational responsibility. It is likely moderately competitive, as the live-in requirement narrows the applicant pool to those seeking immersion in a single facility.
We are seeking a highly responsible and experienced Head of Security who will reside on the premises and take full-time responsibility for the safety and security of the facility, its occupants, assets, and visitors. This role requires round-the-clock oversight, leadership of the security function, and immediate response to any incidents or emergencies at any time of day or night.
The ideal candidate is disciplined, alert, and committed to maintaining a secure and well-managed environment through continuous presence and supervision.

- Maintain an incident log and submit regular security reports to management.
- Coordinate emergency response procedures and safety drills.
- Liaise with local authorities and emergency services when required.
- Ensure proper control of keys, gates, entry/exit points, and restricted areas.
- Manage security equipment and vendor services.
Train security staff on discipline, alertness, and protocol compliance.
Qualifications & Experience
