Ex-Royal Marines Commandos Only
We are recruiting a recently honourably discharged Royal Marines Commando (within the last 3 years) for a full‑time, live‑in executive protection role.
The Package
* Salary: £120,000 per annum (Base).
* Bonus: Annual performance‑related bonus + comprehensive compensation package.
* Leave: 6 weeks paid holiday per year.
* Expenses: All travel, accommodation, and subsistence fully covered.
This is a long‑term position supporting an ultra‑high‑net‑worth European couple who travel frequently between Europe and the United States, and spend extended periods (several months per year) in the Caribbean and Mediterranean aboard a private yacht.
Operational Profile
* Global Travel: You will accompany the principals on a global circuit, primarily between Europe and the USA.
* Maritime Operations: Includes multi‑month deployments aboard a private superyacht in the Caribbean.
* Live‑In: You will be provided with private, high‑standard living quarters within the principals' estates and during travel.
Requirements
* Background: Must be an Honourably Discharged Royal Marine Commando.
* Currency: Must have left the service within the last 3 years (2023–2026).
* Physicality: Superior physical fitness is non‑negotiable. Candidates must be capable of maintaining a high level of readiness and performing under pressure in various climates (temperate to tropical).
* Skills: Expertise in close protection, threat mitigation, and secure transit. Maritime security experience is a significant advantage.
* Temperament: You must be "State 1" ready but remain discreet and low‑profile within a luxury environment. Total confidentiality and loyalty are expected.
Essential Criteria (The Hard Skills)
* Advanced Medical Proficiency: Must hold a minimum of FREC 3 (First Response Emergency Care) or TCCC (Tactical Combat Casualty Care). Preference for candidates with EMT‑B or Paramedic qualifications, as they are the "first responder" for all medical issues.
* Tactical Driving: Proven experience in evasive and defensive driving, ideally with a recognized UK/US protective driving certification.
* Maritime Security: Comfortable and competent operating in maritime environments (yachts) including water rescue and secure boarding procedures.
* Threat Assessment: Ability to conduct "Advances"—scouting hotels, restaurants, and airports hours before the couple arrives to ensure a sterile environment.
Personality & Soft Skills (The "Invisible" Protector)
* The "Grey Man" Ability: The candidate must be able to blend in perfectly. They must know how to dress and act in a 5‑star hotel or on a superyacht without looking like "security."
* Extreme Patience: UHNW protection involves long hours of waiting and sudden changes in plans. We require a calm temperament that is not frustrated by shifting schedules.
* Low Ego: Must understand that the role is to facilitate the principals' lifestyle, not to lead it. They must be comfortable performing "concierge‑security" tasks (e.g., helping with luggage or logistics) when the threat level is low.
* High Emotional Intelligence (EQ): The ability to read the "vibe" of the couple and know when to step forward and when to stay 10 meters back.
* Silence & Discretion: A "vault" mentality. Total commitment to Non‑Disclosure Agreements (NDAs); they must never discuss the couple’s business, guests, or private conversations.
Vetting
Selected candidates will undergo a rigorous vetting process, including verification of service records (Red Book/Discharge papers) and an advanced physical assessment.
