Red Badge Group is New Zealand’s leading independent security and customer management provider. We’re looking for professional, reliable Security Officers and Security Guards to join our teams across a range of environments in Hamilton, including retail, tertiary, and construction sites.


If you’re motivated by keeping people safe, delivering great customer service, and taking pride in your professionalism, we want to hear from you.


We have both permanent and fixed term part time and full time roles available, both days and night shift roles available. All rosters will include at least one weekend day/night.

  • Patrolling sites and monitoring behaviour and activity
  • Responding to incidents calmly, professionally, and in line with procedures
  • De‑escalation and conflict management, including high‑risk situations where required
  • Access control and monitoring of restricted areas
  • Accurate incident reporting and communication with site contacts
  • Working collaboratively with clients, colleagues, and emergency services

What We’re Looking For


  • Strong communication and customer service skills
  • Calm, professional approach under pressure
  • Good judgement and situational awareness
  • Physical fitness (roles may involve long periods on your feet)
  • Reliability, integrity, and a team‑first attitude
  • Ability to follow procedures and maintain detailed reports
  • Must be available to work at least one weekend day per week minimum.
  • Previous security experience is an advantage but not essential. We provide training and support for the right candidates.


Requirements

  • Minimum 18 years of age
  • Eligibility to work in New Zealand
