Odin Security Services

Calgary

Odin Security Services is hiring licensed Security Guards to provide active, hands-on coverage across residential and commercial sites in Alberta. We're looking for reliable, physically capable, professional guards who are comfortable working in an engaged, high-visibility security role — not an observe-and-report-only position.

Our guards conduct regular patrols, engage with residents, patrons and staff, identify problems early, respond to incidents, and maintain a strong, visible security presence at every site.

Requirements

- Valid Alberta Security Services Worker Licence
- High school diploma from a Canadian high school, or Alberta GED
- Strong written and spoken English
- Professional communication and interpersonal skills
- Physically fit and capable of standing and walking for extended periods
- Able to conduct regular foot patrols and remain active throughout a shift
- Able to pass, or provide proof of, a law-enforcement-style physical fitness test within 6 months of employment (e.g. COPAT, PARE, APREP, FORCE, or the ODIN In-House Physical Fitness Test)
- Comfortable working in a hands-on security environment, including responding appropriately to fights, disturbances and aggressive individuals within your training and legal authority
- Reliable, punctual and professional
- Able to work independently and as part of a security team
- Previous security experience is an asset
- Use of Force and/or de-escalation training or experience will be prioritized

Responsibilities

- Conduct regular foot patrols and actively monitor assigned areas
- Maintain a visible and skilled security presence
- Monitor entrances, exits and restricted areas
- Identify and address security concerns before they escalate
- Respond to fights, disturbances, medical incidents and other emergencies
- Deal professionally with intoxicated, aggressive or difficult individuals,



applying appropriate de-escalation techniques
- Enforce site rules, policies and client requirements
- Assist with crowd control and incident response when required
- Complete clear, accurate and professional incident reports
- Communicate effectively with supervisors, clients, site staff and emergency services
- Maintain a high standard of professionalism and conduct at all times

What We're Looking For The right candidate is alert, physically capable, confident and professional — someone comfortable dealing with difficult situations, willing to take initiative, and able to communicate clearly under pressure. If you're looking for a job where you simply stand around and watch, this position is not for you. Training & Development

ODIN invests in its people. Monthly training is provided to help our guards maintain and develop their skills, covering areas such as use of force, de-escalation, communication, incident response, physical fitness, defensive tactics, patrol procedures, report writing and emergency response. Our goal is to build a team of highly capable security professionals who are prepared to handle real-world situations safely and effectively.

Why Work With Odin Security Services

We provide an active security environment where guards stay involved, build real skills and gain experience handling genuine security situations — supported by ongoing monthly training. We're also proud to support competitive athletes: amateur athletes working with ODIN may be eligible for sponsorship opportunities based on performance, commitment and athletic achievement.
