Our returning long time client, a well established Ultra High Net Worth family, is seeking an experienced Estate & Executive Protection Specialist to help protect the principals, family members, residence, grounds, and overall estate.

This opportunity may be particularly appealing to professionals with backgrounds in Executive Protection, Family Office Security, Estate Protection, the United States Secret Service, Diplomatic Security Service, or similar Ultra High Net Worth environments.

This is a highly trusted and visible role within a sophisticated private household. The right candidate will bring a strong protection mindset, excellent judgment, discretion, professionalism, and the ability to operate independently within a private family environment.

You will work from a dedicated office within the main residence, monitoring estate activity, overseeing security systems, maintaining situational awareness, and conducting regular patrols throughout the property.

The ability to assess surroundings, anticipate potential concerns, and exercise sound judgment in both private and public settings is essential.

The position combines estate protection, executive protection principles, property oversight, emergency preparedness, and occasional transportation of the principals. The family seeks a mature professional who understands that successful protection is proactive, discreet, and rarely disruptive.
