🛡️ A MESSAGE TO ASPIRING CLOSE PROTECTION OPERATIVES 🛡️

We've recently received a number of emails from individuals seeking employment opportunities.

Many consist of a single line — “I’m looking for work” — often without a CV attached, without qualifications listed, and without any relevant background information provided.

Close Protection is a professional industry, and your first contact with a company is often your first assessment.

If your approach lacks structure, detail, and professionalism, it reflects directly on your suitability for the role.

📌 Please note the following:

• If we have active vacancies, they will be advertised accordingly.
• We predominantly recruit from within our existing network — particularly individuals who have trained with us and demonstrated the required standards.
• On occasion, we do recruit externally.
• We are happy to receive professional applications and retain them on file.

However, we do not have the capacity to respond individually to speculative applications — even where they are well presented.

For those who take the time to submit credible applications with relevant qualifications and experience — thank you. Suitable CVs may be retained on file, and we may make contact should an appropriate opportunity arise.

It is worth noting that professional communication, CV presentation, punctuality, and overall industry standards are not secondary considerations — they are fundamental.

At Horizon, we educate our students not only in operational capability, but also in professional conduct, industry expectations, and how to position themselves correctly within the security marketplace.

Because in this sector, credibility begins long before deployment.

If you choose to submit an application:

✔️ Ensure your CV is properly formatted and no more than 2 pages long
✔️ Detail relevant operational experience
✔️ Include a concise, professional cover message

The industry is competitive.
Standards matter.
Present yourself accordingly.

Those unwilling to invest time in presenting themselves professionally should not be surprised if they are not taken seriously within a professional industry.
