£120,000 a year
Posted: 6h ago
Offer description

Ex-Royal Marines Commandos Only 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. We are recruiting a recently honourably discharged Royal Marines Commando (within the last 3 years) for a full-time, live-in executive protection role. 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.
