Job Description

Responsibilities

Physical Security is committed to creating a secure and convenient work environment for employees. We protect people and assets across our workplaces and business travel, providing a strong foundation for the company's stable and resilient operations.

Our work starts with identifying potential risks. We turn experience into standards, bring those standards to life through on-site operations and technology, and respond quickly when unexpected situations arise, all while balancing security requirements with employee experience and operational efficiency.

When you join Physical Security, you will take on more than day-to-day security matters. You will tackle complex challenges in real business environments. Our work is close to the front line, while also connecting strategy, technology, and operations. You will need to identify risks in everyday details, drive solutions through global collaboration, make sound judgments and respond effectively in critical situations, and turn lessons from real-world practice into stronger mechanisms and more mature ways of working.

Whether you are just starting your career and hoping to grow quickly through real-world experience, or you already have relevant expertise and want to make a greater impact in more complex environments, you will find room to thrive here: sharpening your judgment through practice, expanding your problem-solving abilities through collaboration, and turning your work into employees' sense of security and greater certainty in organizational operations.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and oversee the Executive Protection program across the Asia-Pacific region, ensuring consistent delivery of close protection and security driving support for company executives throughout the region.
  • Act as the regional point of escalation for limited-notice EP missions, conducting or directing risk assessments, advances, and on-ground operations across all APAC destinations.
  • Manage, develop, and mentor a regional team of EP specialists, driving training programs and ensuring operational standards align with global best practices and local regulatory requirements.
  • Ensure full compliance with applicable APAC laws and regulations across all EP activities, while maintaining the highest standards of professionalism, discretion, and administrative diligence in support of protection duties.

Qualifications

Minimum Qualifications

  • Military or law enforcement background with a proven record in providing executive protection, complemented by extensive experience in long-term escort or business travel support.
  • Solid capabilities of identifying and analyzing current and future security needs of a global organization.
  • Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills with a keen business acumen.
  • Familiarity with Executive Protection programs, policies and support.
  • Has experience of managing a team of 3+ members.
  • Must hold a valid driver's license (minimum class 3) and actively driving for at least past 3 years.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Educational background in Criminology, Security Management, Business, Economics, Finance, or a related field.
  • Has experience of developing and implementing a comprehensive protection system.
  • Has a wide range of interests and excels in multiple athletic disciplines.
  • Down-to-earth, humble and resilient.
  • Able to work flexible hours and travel on a frequent basis, including some weekends as needed.
