The Global Elite Group’s Protective Services Operations fall under the Global Security Associates Division.
Another term often made synonymous with Protective Services is a bodyguard or close protection agent. Our close protection agents have served on assignments including: heads of state, foreign dignitaries, television and box office celebrities and a host of video music award winners.
At GSA we train our close protection agents to maintain the same level of service during long shifts in order to provide 24-hour protection, often including evenings, weekends, and holidays. Our agents follow their clients throughout their daily activities, the work locations may range from indoor office meetings or social events to outdoor rallies or concerts. Our agents often have to travel by car, train, and plane to escort their client(s).
Our professional agents have been properly vetted and most often have backgrounds in local, state and federal law enforcement, military service or related private security services. Our standards are among the industries toughest, our agents must be physically fit, with good eyesight and hearing, and they need to have a presentable appearance. Their choice of uniform can fall into one of three categories, the police attire look, the more soft business casual look, or the more professional suit and tie look. Our agent’s appearance is dictated by our clients needs.
Our agents are trained to be able to recognize potentially dangerous situations and remain calm under pressure. Many of our dealings include the collaboration and coordination with other security personnel, local police and federal authorities.
Our agents understand the need for discretion and can maintain confidentiality. They have very good interpersonal and communications skills.
