Close protection officers
Trained officers assigned to the principal — one officer for low-risk movement, a team where the profile or the setting needs it.
Service 01 / 04
Close protection. Zero attention.
Discreet and highly trained close protection officers for high-profile individuals.
Overview
Protection that doesn’t announce itself.
Discreet, highly trained close protection officers for high-profile individuals — planned movement, advance work and a low-visibility presence that draws no attention to the principal.
The best protection detail is the one nobody notices. Our close protection officers are selected for composure as much as capability: they dress for the setting, move with the principal’s schedule and keep a low profile that does not turn heads in a hotel lobby, a boardroom or a restaurant.
Behind that calm presence is planning. Every route, venue and arrival point is looked at in advance, so the officer at the principal’s side already knows where the exits are, who is expected and what happens if plans change.

What’s included
Everything the service covers.
Protection for a principal starts long before they arrive. We plan the movement, walk the route and the venue in advance, and place officers so that cover is continuous from door to door — without a show of force that draws attention to the person we are protecting.
Advance reconnaissance
Routes, venues and arrival points checked before the principal arrives: exits, parking, holding rooms and who will be there.
Secure movement
Arrivals, departures and vehicle movements timed and covered, so the principal is never left waiting in the open.
Airport, hotel & venue transfers
Meet-and-assist at arrival points and continuous cover between airport, hotel, office and engagements.
Low-profile presence
Officers dressed and positioned to blend into the setting — protection that does not draw attention to the person being protected.
Liaison & coordination
Coordination with venue staff, event organisers, drivers and in-house security so everyone works to the same plan.
Door to door
From the runway to the room.
Most exposure happens in transit — at the kerb, in the lobby, between the car and the door. We plan those moments first.
- Meet-and-assist at Bandaranaike International Airport and other arrival points
- Covered transfers to hotels, offices and venues
- Arrival and departure plans for every engagement
How it works
How we deliver VVIP protection.
01
Risk assessment
We look at the principal’s profile, itinerary and the places they will be, and identify the risks that matter.
02
Protection plan
We agree the size of the detail, the schedule and how movements, arrivals and contingencies will be handled.
03
Advance work
Officers check routes and venues ahead of time and brief the people on the ground.
04
Protective cover
The detail moves with the principal, adjusting to changes in the schedule as they happen.
05
Debrief
After the assignment, we review what happened and refine the plan for the next one.

Questions
About VVIP protection.
01How many officers will I need?
It depends on the principal’s profile, the itinerary and the settings involved. Many assignments need a single officer; higher-profile movements or public events may need a team. We recommend a size after the risk assessment.
02Can you arrange protection at short notice?
Yes, where we can staff it properly. Short-notice requests are assessed straight away, and we will tell you honestly what we can cover and when.
03Will the officers stand out?
No — that is the point. Officers dress for the setting and keep a low profile, so the principal does not draw more attention because of their protection.
04Do you work with our own drivers or in-house security?
Yes. We coordinate with drivers, venue security and any in-house team so everyone works to one plan.
