Armed / Field-Based Leadership ⸻

YOU'VE LED PEOPLE BEFORE. WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU TO DO IT AGAIN. NOLA

Protection Group is seeking an experienced Armed Security Field Supervisor to provide hands-on leadership across our Greater New Orleans operations. This is not a traditional security guard position. We are specifically looking for proven leaders from the military and law-enforcement communities who understand accountability, standards, discipline, decision-making, and taking care of people. If you were the NCO who made sure the mission got accomplished… If you were the patrol officer, FTO, or supervisor others depended on when things went sideways… If you believe standards matter even when nobody is watching… We want to talk to you. The Field Supervisor serves as the operational link between our security officers, clients, and senior management. You will be in the field inspecting posts, mentoring officers, solving problems, responding to incidents, ensuring Post Orders are followed, and protecting the relationships NOLA Protection Group has built with its clients. We aren't simply looking for someone who can find problems. We're looking for someone who can lead people and solve them. ⸻

WHO WE ARE NOLA

Protection Group has served New Orleans and the Gulf South since 2012 , providing professional protective services throughout the region. Our operations include commercial and industrial security, neighborhood security, special events, film and television security, executive protection, and other specialized security assignments. Our reputation depends upon professional officers, strong field leadership, attention to detail, accountability, and exceptional client service. ⸻
