Job Overview

Mercantile Security Service is a locally-owned business that prioritizes personalized service. We have been serving in and around Dayton since 1901.

Our team collaborates with you to support your needs. We offer full- or part-time positions, adapting to your schedule requirements. We take pride in working with veterans. If you are currently serving or recently retired, we encourage you to apply. Although experience in security is beneficial, we also provide training for those new to the industry.

  • Warn people of consequences for breaking rules like loitering and trespassing.
  • Monitor employee exits to prevent theft of company properties.
  • Maintain written logs.
  • Provide assistance to employees and customers in a friendly and polite manner.
  • Carry out investigations and prepare reports on incidents or suspicious activities.
