Company: Start-Rite Schools
Job Title: CCTV Operator
Location: Abuja, FCT, Nigeria
Job Type: Full-time

Application Deadline: November 15, 2026
Job Description
Start-Rite Schools is looking for a CCTV Operator to join its team in Abuja.
A CCTV Operator typically monitors security cameras to ensure the safety of students, staff, and school property.
Key Responsibilities Explained
- Watch security screens and monitors closely
- What it means: The operator maintains continuous visual surveillance of live video feeds from cameras placed across the school premises to ensure nothing goes unnoticed.
- Look out for suspicious activities or unauthorized access
- What it means: The operator actively scans for potential threats, such as trespassers, individuals loitering near restricted areas, or any unusual behavior that could compromise safety.
- Record and report security incidents
- What it means: Whenever an incident occurs, the operator logs the details (including timestamps and descriptions) and compiles formal reports for school management or law enforcement if necessary.
- Track daily events and movements around the school premises
- What it means: Beyond security threats, the operator observes routine traffic—such as student arrivals, staff movements, and visitor entry—to maintain an organized and aware overview of daily campus operations.
- Alert security staff immediately when problems happen
- What it means: Serving as the "eyes and ears" of the physical security team, the operator must instantly communicate emergencies, disturbances, or safety hazards via radio or phone so ground guards can respond quickly.
Key Qualities & Qualifications Explained
- Basic computer skills
- Why it matters: Modern CCTV systems are digital and network-based. An operator needs to know how to navigate monitoring software, search through playback footage, and manage digital files.
- Attention to detail & strong observational skills
- Why it matters: Monitoring multiple screens for hours requires intense focus. The ability to spot a subtle change, an unattended object, or a minor anomaly amidst a busy background is critical.
- Understanding of CCTV systems
- Why it matters: Familiarity with camera angles, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) controls, night-vision settings, and recording equipment helps the operator maximize the effectiveness of the security setup.
