Full job description
WE HELP MAKE YOUR WORLD A SAFER PLACE
Securitas Security Services is seeking an experienced, organized, and decisive Operations Supervisor – Mobile Operations & Dispatch to support our Mobile Security Operations throughout Massachusetts as part of our Northern New England portfolio.
Based out of our Wilmington, MA office, this position serves as a key operational leader during the evening and overnight hours.
This is not a traditional security officer or field-only supervisor position. It is a hands-on operations leadership role combining employee supervision, dispatch coordination, scheduling, incident response, fleet oversight, technology monitoring, administrative responsibilities, and client service.
The Operations Supervisor will help keep a geographically dispersed mobile workforce running effectively throughout the night while serving as a primary resource for officers, field supervisors, clients, and branch leadership.
Salary: $70,000 annually
Primary Schedule: Tuesday–Saturday, 6:00 PM–2:00 AM
Location: Wilmington, Massachusetts
Because Securitas operates 24/7, some flexibility is required for urgent operational needs, emergencies, and situations requiring supervisory support.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Lead Evening & Overnight Operations
- Serve as a primary operational leader during evening and overnight hours.
- Supervise, coach, and support Mobile Field Supervisors and Mobile Security Officers.
- Provide clear direction to employees working independently across multiple client locations.

- Promote accountability, professionalism, safety, and consistent performance across the Mobile team.
Manage Dispatch & Field Activity
- Coordinate mobile patrol routes, dispatch activity, alarm responses, officer assignments, and emergency calls.
- Monitor field activity and adjust resources when priorities or conditions change.
- Ensure scheduled patrols, inspections, alarm responses, lock/unlock services, guard checks, and other client services are completed correctly and on time.
- Respond to call-outs and staffing issues and coordinate appropriate coverage.

This position works with multiple operational systems throughout the shift.
Responsibilities may include monitoring and utilizing:

Oversee Fleet Operations

- Monitor vehicle usage, condition, inspections, and safety compliance.
- Coordinate maintenance and repair needs.
- Review vehicle and driver activity using company monitoring systems.
- Address unsafe driving, vehicle concerns, and policy violations when necessary.
Support Clients & Service Quality
- Help ensure consistent service delivery across a diverse Massachusetts client portfolio.
- Respond professionally to client questions, concerns, and service issues.
- Conduct field inspections, quality assurance checks, and operational reviews.
- Investigate service failures and operational issues, determine root causes, and implement corrective action.
- Escalate significant incidents appropriately while maintaining clear communication with branch leadership.
Maintain Accurate Operational Records
- Review and maintain scheduling, payroll, employee, and operational documentation.
- Prepare and review reports, incident documentation, and client communications.
- Ensure information is accurate, complete, and submitted on time.
