Security Guard — Cover Letter Examples
Security guard and loss prevention roles.
Dear Hiring Manager, I am applying for the security guard position. I hold a current guard card and 3 years of commercial site experience, most recently covering a 200K sq ft property with zero reportable incidents in 14 months. My logs speak to the job: average incident response under 3 minutes, 100% patrol compliance, and two theft interceptions documented with clean reports that held up with police. I am available for nights, weekends and holidays, and can start immediately. Sincerely, [Your Name]
