Security Systems
Project Manager

Johannesburg-based integrator · Integrated CCTV, access control and intruder detection · Critical infrastructure portfolio.

The Role

A leading integrated security systems contractor in Johannesburg is hiring a Project Manager to own end-to-end delivery on a portfolio of CCTV, access control and intruder detection projects across critical infrastructure, commercial estate and high-end residential.

The role is heavily client-facing: scoping, programme management, supplier coordination, and full commercial accountability for project margin. The right candidate will have come up through the industry — engineering background preferred — and be comfortable owning multi-million-rand schemes from kickoff through handover.

Responsibilities

  • End-to-end project delivery across integrated security systems.
  • Manage technical engineers, subcontractors and on-site installation teams.
  • Client-facing programme management and weekly progress reporting.
  • Commercial accountability for project margin — manage scope changes, variations and cost recovery.
  • Liaise with consultants, architects and end-clients on integration requirements.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years project management in integrated electronic security.
  • Strong working knowledge of CCTV, access control and intruder detection platforms (e.g. Genetec, Milestone, AC2000, Lenel, Paxton).
  • SAIDSA, SAQCC or equivalent industry standing.
  • Comfortable owning commercial conversations with end-clients.
  • Driver's licence; willingness to travel within South Africa as required.

Package

  • R 900,000 – R 1,100,000 base, dependent on experience.
  • Vehicle allowance.
  • Performance bonus tied to project delivery and margin.
  • Medical aid, retirement contribution, 22 days annual leave.
