Chief Security Guard Jobs in Texas

A Chief Security Guard plays a critical role in the security industry. Their main responsibility is to oversee the security operations within an organization or facility. This includes developing and implementing security protocols, supervising a team of security personnel, conducting security audits, and responding to security emergencies. They are also responsible for ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal security laws and regulations and often liaise with law enforcement agencies.
