Job Description

Who We're Looking For

We hire operators. The background that qualifies you isn't one specific resume — it's a level of preparation, discipline, and commitment that develops across several paths:

• Military service in protective, security, combat, or related operational roles
• Law enforcement — patrol, investigations, dignitary or executive protection, federal service
• Emergency services — EMT, paramedic, firefighter, or military corpsman with operational field experience
• Physical security operations — GSOC, access control, or residential estate security for high-net-worth clients
• Executive or close protection in any capacity — private, corporate, or overseas

Training in defensive tactics, tactical firearms, emergency medicine, or arrest and control techniques is a strong advantage.

Your Mission

Our residential agents are the operation, not a support function. They hold the post, maintain the standard, and ensure that the people in their care move through their lives without interruption.

• Provide protective coverage at private residential estates for high-net-worth clients and their families
• Maintain situational awareness across every shift
• Coordinate with the broader security team on post orders, protocols, and any threat or incident
• Represent Black Box Security with the discretion and professionalism our clients expect and our agents are known for

What You Bring

• Current CA BSIS Exposed Firearm Permit and Guard Card
• 3+ years of residential security experience with high-net-worth individuals
• Valid California driver's license, clean record
• Composure and sound judgment in dynamic, fast-paced situations
• Professional presence and client-facing communication skills
• The ability to operate independently and as a seamless part of a team
• Physical fitness and the ability to sustain continuous physical exertion throughout a shift
• Availability for 12-hour shifts across days, nights, weekends, and holidays required
• CA CCW strongly preferred

Compensation & Growth

• $100,000–$130,000 annually
• Merit-based promotions and advancement

Benefits

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off
• 401(k) with employer match
• Referral program
