Do you live within 75 miles of Annapolis Junction, MD?

If this sounds like the right move for you, keep reading.

These are the things we are looking for in our Access Control Specialists!

What you'll be doing:

Your attention to detail pays off as you monitor and control the access of employees and visitors in and out of restricted areas by ensuring people have the proper identification.

You are vigilant as you make sure that prohibited and restricted items do not find their way into or out of the building.

You're a patient and strong communicator as you give employees and visitors directions and provide excellent customer service.

Security matters to you and building a career in the field is where you want to be.

What you'll gain working with our teams:

Outstanding experience in the security field.

Enhanced communication skills.

Compelling mission in protecting critical assets.

Learn valuable skills needed to build a career in security.

What we're looking for:

You MUST be able to work either 1st (6:00am-2:00pm +/- 1 hour), 2nd (2:00pm-10:00pm +/- 1 hour), or 3rd (10:00pm-6:00am +/- 1 hour) shift or half of one of these shifts (this option is limited) based on contract needs; this work supports 24/7 operations and you may be assigned challenging shifts, but it will be worth it!
