  • Field Surveillance : Perform covert surveillance from your vehicle by tracking and capturing high-quality video evidence of surveillance targets.
  • Report Writing : Draft detailed and court-ready investigative reports summarizing activity and key findings.
  • Documentation : Finalize case file by submitting case reports and uploading video footage via personal laptop at the end of the day.
  • Communication : Work closely with the field supervisor and operations teams, receiving regular guidance and mentorship.

REQUIREMENTS :

  • Previous Experience : Demonstrated proficiency in covert surveillance techniques, capturing high-quality video footage, and preparing thorough, well-organized investigative reports.

  • Most surveillance cases start at 6 : 00AM. End time can vary depending on activity and a typical workday can vary from 3-12 hours.
  • Weekends / holidays are common workdays as claimants are more likely to be active.
  • This is an independent role often requiring long hours alone in your vehicle, regardless of weather conditions.

    • Ethos Risk Services is an equal opportunity employer that does not discriminate on the basis of religious creed, sex, national origin, race, veteran status, disability, age, marital status, color or sexual orientation or any other characteristic.
