Job description

Atlas Security is looking for an experienced leader to join our Technical team (Installations and Maintenance) and help drive service delivery, growth, and operational excellence across Nelson Mandela Bay.‍

About the role:

This is a build‑and‑lead role, not a maintain‑the‑status‑quo role. You will own how our technical operations run end‑to‑end across the Atlas footprint of Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage, and Despatch. The brief is simple: take outcomes, principles, and direction — and make the right things happen, with the right people, processes, and accountability in place.‍If you want to shape strategy, inspire teams, and drive operational excellence, this is the role for you.‍

About us:

Atlas Security is a trusted leader in the Eastern Cape, delivering compliance‑driven technical services and operational excellence. Our footprint spans Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage, and Despatch, and we pride ourselves on audit‑ready frameworks, disciplined service delivery, and innovation in technical management.‍We are ambitious, evolving quickly, and looking for leaders who thrive on accountability and growth.‍

What you will own:

Workforce Leadership & Development: Lead and inspire 30+ technical staff across PE, Uitenhage, and Despatch, fostering accountability, motivation, and growth (includes technicians and administrators).‍Service Strategy & Execution: Shape and implement long‑term service strategy, translating objectives into operational plans across the Atlas footprint.‍Discipline & Accountability: Address staff issues firmly and fairly, applying disciplinary procedures to uphold professionalism.Fleet & Cost Management: Manage fleet operations, fuel efficiency, and brand appearance while controlling costs.‍Risk & Compliance: Resolve service risks quickly in collaboration with divisional managers, ensuring compliance with standards.‍Innovation & Continuous Improvement: Champion new technologies, automation, and AI‑driven processes to enhance efficiency and service delivery.‍

Who we are looking for:

You are a hands‑on leader with proven experience in technical operations, ideally in a fast‑moving, compliance‑driven environment. You thrive on accountability, can balance strategic foresight with operational detail, and are as good at building people up as you are at making hard calls.‍You are motivated by results, resilience, and innovation, and you want the breadth of this role rather than a narrow lane.‍Most importantly, you are someone who embraces AI as a core part of how you work. You instinctively ask how technology, automation, and AI‑driven tools can solve problems faster and smarter, and you thrive on advancing processes, improving efficiency, and raising your team to that standard.

Pay: R1,00 - R2,00 per month
