At Signal, we're changing the face of security and doing so very quickly! Our team is not like those at other security companies. We live for "moments of heroism" where we can truly be there for our clients, who join us in serving our communities. This type of work is a job to some, but to us, it's an opportunity to make a real difference.

Why work with us? We believe in taking care of our people. We embrace a culture where everyone feels valued and it's instilled in us to know we can be successful.

We are passionate about taking care of our clients and our communities. This is achieved through quality leadership, the confidence and competence to perform, and doing all of this in an environment where we feel at home. Our Company Core Values and Beliefs are at the heart of what we do, and how we do it.

Our Officer Advancement Program outlines how a new trainee can develop, succeed in his or her responsibilities, and ultimately grow in his or her role in order to move upward in their career. Without this, we wouldn't be fulfilling our commitment to employee development and wouldn't be serving our clients the way we know they should be served.

Does this sound like something you want to be a part of?
