On-site, mobile, and remote security services across Canada
Securitas Canada operates a large, security-focused workforce (7,800+ staff across 19 offices) with hiring concentrated almost entirely in security roles—reflecting a labor-intensive guard and monitoring business. Their tech stack is enterprise-standard (Salesforce, Microsoft, Google/Apple Maps, CCTV), while pain points clustered around overtime reduction, staff training, and contract KPI compliance suggest operational scaling challenges typical of field-service businesses managing distributed teams.
