Why should I hire a bodyguard?

There are a number of people that are in the limelight such as celebrities, politicians, businesswomen, and men. While many of them are loved and adored by the public, there are some who fear their safety when their personal space is not respected. This is when bodyguards step in, their job is to ensure that their client feels protected and arrives at their destinations in a safe manner. ​

As a bodyguard for an HNW or UHNW individual, it is essential that you are attentive, flexible, discreet and reliable. If you are requested to drive you should have good driving skills and a clean drivers licence. Often you will be working in a team to ensure your client's safety which means you have to be a strong team-player. 

The responsibilities of a bodyguard are accompanying the client to trips, events, dinners, and appointments, travelling with the client but ensuring the client's safety, some driving duties if requested, protecting the client at all time from the invasion of privacy, planning of entry and emergency escape routes, however, duties might vary depending on the client. 

To work for a private client as a bodyguard you must have previous experience working in a similar role, have security training and qualifications, first aid certificate, have a clean criminal background check and military or police background is a plus.
