Job Skills / Requirements

Branch Field Training Officer (Overnight Operations) – Houston, TX

We’re not looking for someone to just fill a post.We’re looking for someone to raise the standard.

We are seeking a high-performing, professional Branch Field Training Officer to support and elevate multiple sites across the Houston area during overnight operations. This is a leadership-track role designed for individuals who take pride in developing others, owning their environment, and operating with a high level of accountability.

If you’ve ever walked onto a site and immediately seen what needs to be fixed—and more importantly, taken action—this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

You won’t just “check boxes”—you’ll shape performance in the field.

• Lead onboarding and field training for new security officers
• Conduct site visits, audits, and performance evaluations with a solutions-focused mindset
• Set and reinforce expectations around professionalism, reporting, and client interaction
• Support supervisors and respond to real-time operational challenges
• Step into the field when needed—patrol, access control, and camera monitoring
• Ensure continuity of service by supporting shift coverage when required
• Handle minor operational needs (vehicle/golf cart readiness, basic maintenance like tire changes)

What This Role Really Is

This is the bridge between leadership and execution.

You are:

• The standard officers are measured against
• The person new hires remember as the one who set the tone
• The one who catches issues early before they become client problems

This role is critical to building a disciplined, reliable, and professional workforce.

What We’re Looking For

• Prior security experience required
• Field Training Officer (FTO) or supervisory experience preferred
• Strong communication skills with the ability to coach, correct, and develop others
• High attention to detail—especially in reporting and compliance
• Self-starter mentality with the ability to operate independently

Requirements:

• Minimum age 25 (company vehicle insurance requirement)
• Valid Texas Driver’s License with a clean driving record
• Ability to work overnight shifts, weekends, and adapt to operational needs
• Must meet background and fit-for-duty standards

Why This Role Matters

This isn’t a static position—it’s a launch point.

You’ll gain:

• Direct exposure to multi-site operations
• Leadership development in real-world environments
• The opportunity to influence culture, training, and performance
• A clear path toward higher leadership roles within operations

Who This Is For

This role is for someone who:

• Takes ownership without being asked
• Holds the line on standards—even when it’s uncomfortable
• Wants to grow into leadership, not just hold a position

If you’re ready to step into a role where your presence actually makes a difference, we want to hear from you.
