We help governments, NGOs and commercial organisations operate safely and effectively in some of the world's most complex environments by combining intelligence, technology and operational expertise. Our teams deliver actionable insight that helps clients manage risk, make informed decisions and achieve meaningful operational impact where it matters most. 

Our shared mission is to deliver unrelenting excellence in everything we do, underpinned by integrity, curiosity, accountability and care.

About the Role 

We are seeking experienced Residential Security Team (RST) Operators to support an Ultra High Net Worth (UHNW) family and their associated properties in London.

This is a London-based position, ideally suited to consultants who reside within a reasonable commuting distance of Knightsbridge. Please note that accommodation is not provided as part of this role. The role operates on a shift rotation pattern and may require travel throughout the UK, including occasional overnight stays, in line with operational requirements. We are looking for individuals who are professional, reliable and presentable, take pride in their appearance, and have a genuine commitment to service excellence and client care.

Working as part of a wider protective security team, you will help maintain the safety and security of residential properties, estates, family vehicles, family members and visitors, while proactively identifying risks and vulnerabilities. The role requires an understanding of the unique demands of working within a private family environment, including the ability to maintain a reassuring security presence without becoming intrusive.

There may also be occasional requirements to support or substitute into Close Protection Officer duties, where appropriately qualified and where client needs dictate.

Due to the responsive nature of the role, applicants must have sufficient availability to undertake assignments as they arise and should not have competing commitments that could affect their ability to mobilise quickly. Success in this role will require discretion, respect for client privacy, sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to build trust while maintaining clear professional boundaries.

Above all, we are seeking individuals who share our commitment to delivering discreet, professional and unrelenting excellence.
