New Beginnings

New beginnings are possible in the security industry.

4 powerful reasons to pursue a new beginning in security.

New beginnings start with growth

The security industry is projected to grow an additional 8.2% in 2015 reaching $76.9 billion. That follows a 7.9% increase in 2014, with no end in sight. With Google buying NEST for 3.2 billion dollars and Apple launching HomeKit in iOS8, the growth in home security and automation has only just begun.

New beginnings require staying power

The security industry proved its strength through the recession and came as close to a “recession proof” industry as you can get. Find your new beginning in the security industry for job and livelihood security that many other industries just can’t match.

New beginnings crave independence

If flexibility and independence are tops on your career must-have list, then the security industry is for you. Many security jobs allow for flexible time schedules that accommodate both employees and customers. The level of independence in security jobs is dependent on the job itself, often being tied directly to performance.

New beginnings can bring new meaning

Security jobs aren’t just about earning a living. With a career in security you’ll feel great about what you do for your clients each and every day. You’ll provide peace of mind, safeguard belongings and possibly save lives through your dedication and hard work.
