  • Job Description

  • We are seeking exceptional Contract Close Protection Officers (CPOs) to join a professional protective services environment supporting high-risk and high-net-worth clients. This role is suited to individuals who combine strong technical capability with discretion, intelligence, and professional presence. 

    The Individual We Are Looking For 
    - Beyond credentials, we are deliberate about the calibre of people we work with. Our environment demands: 
    - Professional maturity, discretion, and sound judgement 
    - High emotional intelligence and situational awareness 
    - A calm, articulate, and client-centric approach 
    - An entrepreneurial mindset with ownership and accountability 
    - Passion for the craft of protection, not a reliance on force or bravado 

    We value sophistication over intimidation, intelligence over aggression, and individuals who understand that modern close protection is as much about anticipation, communication, and adaptability as it is about technical skill 

    We welcome interest from experienced close protection professionals who meet these criteria and share our professional standards. 
    Then you may just be the person we are looking for to expand our pool of talent.  We are actively seeking experienced Close Protection Specialists in Gauteng, the Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Kwa-Zulu Natal.
