Join the specialist team at Eagle Shield. We are looking for vigilant Security Officers and K9 Handlers to manage the integrity of vacant assets. You will be responsible for conducting perimeter inspections, responding to alarm activations, and ensuring that empty premises do not become targets for illegal occupation or criminal damage. Our officers provide the physical presence necessary to satisfy strict insurance requirements and protect your property's market value.
Responsibilities:
- Perimeter & Internal Inspections: Conduct regular sweeps to identify signs of attempted forced entry or structural damage.
- Squatter Prevention: Neutralize the risk of illegal occupation through high-visibility K9 patrols and rapid response.
- Environmental Monitoring: Identify and report hazards such as flooding, fire risks, or fly-tipping before they escalate.
- Keyholding & Alarm Response: Act as the primary responder for 24/7 alarm activations and suspicious activity.
- Insurance Compliance Reporting: Maintain detailed digital logs and audit-ready reports to verify site security for insurers.
Why Choose Eagle Shield for Vacant Assets?
An unoccupied property is a vulnerable property. Without a physical presence, empty buildings quickly attract metal thieves, vandals, and squatters, leading to expensive legal battles and property devaluation. While boarding and electronic alarms offer basic alerts, they cannot physically prevent a breach. A Vacant Property Security Solution from Eagle Shield provides an active, mobile defense that neutralizes threats in real-time.
Our K9-led patrols offer a psychological and physical deterrent that static guards alone cannot provide. By detecting intruders through scent and sound long before they reach the building, our units ensure your investment remains secure. Whether your site is awaiting redevelopment, between tenants, or undergoing a planning phase, we provide the regional knowledge and tactical expertise to keep it safe.
ate K9 Security Service delivers an active defense that identifies and neutralizes threats before they escalate into confrontations.
Our security dogs possess heightened senses, allowing them to detect suspicious movement or scent long before a human guard could. The presence of an elite K9 unit serves as a powerful psychological deterrent, ensuring your home, event, or family remains protected. Managed by NASDU-certified handlers, Eagle Shield provides a reliable and discreet solution for those who demand the highest tier of safety.
