👩‍✈️🌍 More Women Are Entering the Security Industry – And Demand Is Growing 🌍👩‍✈️

The Close Protection industry is evolving, and organisations across the UK and overseas are increasingly looking for skilled female operatives to support a wide range of assignments.

From executive protection and residential security through to hostile environment deployments and specialist support roles, female professionals continue to bring valuable operational strengths to the sector.

At Horizon, we’re passionate about helping more women explore opportunities within the security industry and develop the confidence, qualifications and mindset required to succeed.

A background in security is not always essential.

Many successful operatives come from areas such as:

✔️ Armed Forces and blue-light services
✔️ Healthcare and emergency response
✔️ Customer-facing or leadership roles
✔️ Travel, aviation and international environments

Close Protection is a profession built around far more than physical presence alone. Key attributes include:

• Situational awareness
• Calm decision-making under pressure
• Professional communication
• Threat and risk management
• Teamwork and adaptability
• Medical and emergency response skills

These are qualities that cannot be measured purely by stereotypes — and the industry benefits from greater diversity of experience and perspective.

🎓 Training at Horizon is designed to be supportive, realistic and operationally focused, helping students prepare for the standards expected within modern security environments.

Our training includes:

• Level 3 Close Protection
• FREC Level 3 Medical Training
• HECPO
• Refresher and development courses

If you’ve ever considered a career within the private security sector, this could be the perfect time to take the first step.

🚨 UPCOMING HECPO & CBRN COURSES – BUILD YOUR OPERATIONAL EDGE 🚨

Looking to take your career beyond the basics?

We’ve got two key courses coming up designed to enhance your capability, improve your CV, and help you stand out in an increasingly competitive industry 👇

🔥 HECPO – Hostile Environment Close Protection Operative
📅 11 Apr – 14 Apr 2026
💷 £720

While not a requirement for your SIA licence, HECPO is what separates those who are simply qualified… from those who are ready to operate in hostile and high-risk environments 🌍

Perfect for those looking to work overseas or progress into more demanding roles.

☣️ CBRN Awareness & Response Course
📅 15 Apr – 16 Apr 2026
💷 £395

Understand and respond to Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear threats — a critical skillset for anyone operating in today’s evolving risk landscape.

💥 Why combine both?
Completing both courses back-to-back gives you a serious advantage:
✅ Enhanced operational capability
✅ Broader skillset across medical & environmental threats
✅ Stronger CV for overseas and higher-risk roles
✅ Clear commitment to your CPD and progression 📈

⚠️ Limited spaces on both courses

If you’re serious about progressing in the industry, now is the time to invest in your capability — not just your licence.
