Job Description

Black Box Security is one of Los Angeles' most established boutique executive protection firms, trusted by high-ranking executives, celebrities, musicians, and public figures to protect what matters most — their lives, their families, and their privacy. We provide close protection, residential security, world tours, production security, and domestic and international travel for principals who require an uncompromising standard of discretion, professionalism, and skill. Our agents come from law enforcement, the military, and the field — and the culture they built in those environments is the culture we operate in here. High standards. Mutual accountability. Relentless pursuit of the craft. You'll become part of a close-knit team of elite operators — men and women who understand the weight of this work and hold each other to an unwavering standard of precision, discretion, and professionalism. This is more than a career move. It's a mission. Who We're Looking For The candidate we're hiring has already operated in environments where the stakes were real, the standards were non-negotiable, and the team around them ran at a level they trusted. That background takes several forms: 3+ years of close or executive protection with high-net-worth individuals, domestic and international Law enforcement with 5+ years of service and direct experience in executive, dignitary, or VIP protection Military service — special forces, special operations, or equivalent — with diplomatic security, overseas protective, or PSD experience Overseas contract security in high-threat environments: PSD, embassy protection, or principal-facing Private Military Contractor work Candidates with military or law enforcement backgrounds without EP-specific experience are encouraged to review our Residential Protection Agent posting.
