Salary Range: $75,000.00 To $95,000.00 Annually

The Site Security Coordinator (SSC) is responsible for developing, implementing, and managing the overall security program for a construction project. This role ensures the protection of the site, personnel, materials, and equipment against unauthorized access, theft, vandalism, sabotage, and other security risks. The SSC serves as the primary point of contact for security matters, collaborating closely with the Client/Owner, General Contractor (GC), subcontractors, and security technology providers (e.g., Sitemetric systems).

This is a hands-on, full-time on-site role requiring proactive planning, ongoing coordination, and enforcement of a living Construction Security Plan (CSP) or Construction Management Plan (CMP). The plan is a dynamic document that evolves with project phases and is updated in coordination with the Client. This Job Site will requirea valid and active Guard Card for the State you are applying to.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and Implement the Construction Security Plan (CSP/CMP):
  Prior to construction start (or shortly thereafter), create, seek approval for, and implement a comprehensive CSP/CMP. This living document outlines all requirements and procedures for deterrence and detection of unauthorized access, risk reduction, and prevention of security violations throughout the project lifecycle.
• Ensure the plan includes (but is not limited to):
  • All fencing locations and perimeter security.
  • Site access points, gates, and access control measures (e.g., badges, logging, visitor protocols).
  • Locations and controls for laydown yards, secure material storage, and high-value areas.
  • Construction trailers, parking areas for contractors, visitors, and deliveries.
  • Designated visitor processing and escort areas.
  • Vehicle traffic flow patterns and pedestrian pathways.
  • Emergency egress paths through construction zones.
  • Lighting plans and illumination standards.
  • Security officer posts, schedules, and hours of operation.
  • Camera locations, fields of view, monitoring systems, and integration with technologies like Sitemetric.
    Incorporate a detailed site layout drawing/map illustrating security provisions, logistics, access controls, safety measures, and construction sequencing.
• Zone Management and Access Control:
  Define, map, and enforce color-coded security zones to ensure layered defense-in-depth:
  • Grey Zone: Outer buffer/peripheral areas (e.g., public-adjacent spaces, visitor parking) with monitoring and early detection.
  • Green Zone: Low-risk support areas (e.g., admin offices, welfare facilities, low-value storage) with basic controls (sign-in, s).
  • Yellow Zone: Moderate-risk transitional/work areas (e.g., laydown yards, equipment storage) requiring induction, badges, and possible escorts.
  • Red Zone: High-risk/critical areas (e.g., high-value storage, fuel depots, sensitive equipment) with strict restricted access, permits, escorts, logging, and barriers.
  • Construction Zone: Core active build areas with strict limits to inducted personnel only, full PPE/credentials, and integration of sub-zones as needed.
    Include zone boundaries on maps, appropriate signage, fencing/barriers, CCTV coverage, guard posts, emergency procedures, and escalation protocols.
• Compliance and Enforcement:Ensure full adherence to all aspects of the approved CSP/CMP by all site personnel, subcontractors, visitors, and deliveries. Conduct regular site inspections, audits, and spot checks to verify compliance with security measures, access controls, and plan requirements. Manage and oversee security technology systems (e.g., Sitemetric platforms, cameras, access controls) and coordinate related teams.
• Stakeholder Coordination and Interface:Serve as the primary liaison with Client/Owner security representatives for proactive planning, resolution of concerns, and plan updates. Collaborate with the General Contractor, subcontractors, and other project stakeholders on security integration within overall site logistics and operations. Manage security personnel (e.g., guards, access control officers) including scheduling, performance oversight, and training.
• Incident Response and Reporting:Respond to security incidents, breaches, or concerns; investigate as needed and recommend…
