Cedar Security is hiring uniformed, tactical security guards for retail locations in Toronto. You will serve as the visible security presence on-site — your job is to deter theft, ensure the safety of staff and customers, and respond to incidents as they arise.

Responsibilities
Monitoring store entry and exit points
Conducting regular foot patrols of the sales floor and back-of-house areas
Monitoring CCTV systems and reporting suspicious activity
Responding to shoplifting incidents, disturbances, and emergencies
Assisting with store opening and closing procedures
Writing clear and accurate incident reports after every event
Providing basic crowd management during high-traffic periods
Coordinating with store management and law enforcement when necessary

This is not a desk job. You will be on your feet for the duration of your shift, staying alert and staying visible. Retail security requires patience — most of the job is presence and observation. But when something does happen, you need to respond quickly, professionally, and within the boundaries of the law.





Shifts vary based on store hours and may include early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. You may be assigned to a single location long-term or rotate between sites depending on client needs. Cedar provides site-specific orientation and ongoing support from supervisory staff.

Requirements
Valid Ontario Security Guard Licence (mandatory)
Clean criminal record (a background check will be conducted)
Qualified appearance and demeanor — you are representing both Cedar and the client
Ability to stand, walk, and patrol for extended periods (8–12 hour shifts)
Strong observational skills and situational awareness
Ability to write clear incident reports
Reliable and punctual — showing up on time, every time, is a baseline expectation
Standard First Aid and CPR-C certification is an asset
Previous retail security or customer service experience is preferred but not required
Comfortable working independently with minimal supervision
Bilingual (English/French) is an asset
