Beyond Bodyguarding: Drive Your Career Where It Counts

Executive Security Driver

Let’s be honest: dropping thousands on a Close Protection course filled with shooting drills, tactical extractions, and adrenaline-pumping J and Y turns can feel like living out a Hollywood fantasy. But the return on that investment is questionable at best.

In many European countries—excluding Switzerland, Germany, and a few others—private Close Protection Officers aren’t even permitted to carry firearms. So, if you’re spending a fortune on tactical combat training you may never legally use, what you’re really paying for is… an expensive experience. 

Don’t get us wrong firearms can play a role in certain Executive Protection programs. At Excel, we do offer that service when deemed necessary and legally appropriate. But the way some training organisations market firearms as an essential part of Close Protection can be very misleading

What Clients Actually Want 

Today’s discreet and image-conscious executive clients—whether CEOs, UHNWIs, or private families—aren’t hiring action-movie bodyguards. They’re looking for someone who is:

  • Discreet and doesn’t stand out
  • Dependable
  • Effective under pressure
  • Capable of organising logistics for global movements
  • Able to navigate both traffic and the unspoken rules of elite circles 

In short: they want an Executive Security Driver.

Security Driver: The New Standard in Close Protection

It might not make for cinema, but piloting a powerful vehicle while managing dynamic schedules, high-stakes environments, and discerning clients requires serious skill. 

To succeed in this role, you’ll need:

  • Emotional intelligence
  • Situational awareness
  • A protective mindset and self-defence proficiency
  • Impeccable professional etiquette
  • A flawless, well-maintained vehicle
  • Practical, real-world training
