Job description
Fidelity TalentSource is your destination for discovering your next temporary role at Fidelity Investments. We are currently sourcing for a Security Officer to work in Durham, NC!

Working as part of a team, you will play an integral role in creating peace of mind for Fidelity and its customers by protecting company assets, minimizing risk, and ensuring overall safety at a variety of locations.

You must also display excellent verbal and written communication and interpersonal skills as you will interact with a variety of department managers and staff in addition to external visitors.
Please note: Hire for this position is contingent upon successful completion of a thorough background check, including criminal, credit and education history, previous work experience/references, and a drug screen.

Ability to perform first‑responder rescue activities involved with medical or facility emergency situations
Knowledge of basic first aid and CPR, or the ability to acquire such knowledge through training
Knowledge of basic physical security techniques and principles, or the ability to acquire such knowledge through training
