Boasting strong communication skills is an important trait of a highly competent security officer. It helps them open up a clear and transparent dialogue with their clients to understand their requirements as well as giving them the ability to confidently interact with and question people in the vicinity.  Should they need to report issues to local authorities regarding an incident, they will have no problems giving a lucid and through statement, providing as much detail as possible for an investigation to begin.

Security officers who boast years of experience in the industry undoubtedly have come across a myriad of stressful and unusual situations. The role of a security officer requires a certain resilience that builds up over time which allows the officer to become better equipped at dealing with situations.

Having excellent awareness encompasses a range of things, a great security officer will not only be aware of their surroundings, but also of any foreseeable security risk to the client.
