Close Protection, also known as executive protection, is a specialized security service aimed at ensuring the safety of individuals facing increased personal risk due to their profession or public status.

Physical size is not a requirement for close protection operatives, whether in standard environments or high-risk zones. Just like in military or special forces, success in these roles is based on skills, training, and mental resilience rather than physical stature. Effective close protection relies on situational awareness, quick decision-making, communication, and the ability to de-escalate situations. In high-risk zones, training and experience are even more critical, as operatives must be prepared to handle extreme conditions and threats. Whether in normal settings or high-risk areas, it’s the operative’s expertise and readiness, not their size, that ensures the safety of the client.

While we don’t directly offer jobs, we boast an extensive network within the industry. Through our connections, we regularly come across opportunities that can serve as a stepping stone for individuals looking to begin their careers in the field. We strive to assist our participants by providing access to potential openings and connections within the industry.
