Full Job Description

Overview

At Ford, you’ll work on ideas that matter, alongside passionate people who want to make a global impact. Together, we’re shaping the next era of transportation—grounded in purpose, driven by progress. Make your move.

Job Type: Full time
Work Type: Hybrid

Use the people skills and problem-solving skills you developed during your law enforcement or military career in an environment with less stress and less risk. We are supported by the Global Security leadership team in Dearborn and that ensures our team is professional and well-trained - for example, the quarterly firearms training means we can maintain firearms proficiency and get paid for it! Leverage your professional law enforcement or military experience into a rewarding second chapter at Ford.

In this position…

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Executive Protection Specialist to join our elite protective services team. In this role, you will serve as a critical member of our global executive protection program, with primary responsibility for planning and conducting comprehensive security advances and executing protective operations for our principals at the highest level of professionalism and discretion.

The ideal candidate is a seasoned protection professional who combines tactical expertise with polished interpersonal skills, sound judgment, and an unwavering commitment to service. You will have a demonstrated history of delivering discrete, world-class protective services and will thrive in dynamic, fast-paced, and often ambiguous environments — both domestically and internationally.

The successful candidate will join a team committed to operational excellence, sound judgment, and the highest levels of personal and professional integrity.

What you'll do…

Protective Operations & Advance Work

Plan and execute security advances (site surveys, route/venue/threat assessments) for domestic and international principal movements and events
Develop advance reports, security plans, and contingency protocols; audit and refine plans for effectiveness
Provide close protection during movements and public engagements, including secure transportation with defensive/evasive driving
Collect and analyze threat intelligence; identify and mitigate risks to the principal
Coordinate logistics (travel, lodging, itineraries) and liaise with law enforcement, venue security, vendors, and cross-functional teams
Deliver clear briefings and reports to leadership while maintaining strict confidentiality
Remain on-call and flexible for irregular hours/travel; operate independently under pressure with sound judgment
Perform duties under stressful conditions and in frequently ambiguous environments while maintaining composure and sound decision-making
Available on-call, including evenings/weekends/holidays
Able to travel domestically/internationally, often on short notice

You’ll have…

7+ years of executive protection experience, including close protection of Governors, Federal officials, or comparable high-profile principals in a law enforcement setting
Proven expertise in security advance planning and core protection disciplines: protective intelligence, secure transportation, advance/logistics coordination, contingency planning, and domestic/international travel security
Defensive/evasive driving and firearms proficiency
Emergency medical field care capability
Strong communication skills (written/verbal) across all organizational levels
Tech-savvy, with ability to produce polished reports and presentations
Solid organizational and project management skills
Ability to solve problems and perform under high-stress, ambiguous conditions
Self-motivated, works independently with minimal supervision
Excellent physical condition; capable of sustained physical exertion
Must pass a comprehensive background investigation

Even better, you may have…

LEOSA / HR 218 Firearm Qualification
Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) or Paramedic Certification

Personal Attributes of Successful Candidates

We're seeking a security professional genuinely committed to protecting others at the highest standard. Successful candidates will demonstrate:

Service-driven mindset — genuine commitment to others' safety and well-being
Integrity and unwavering ethical standards
Composure under pressure with sound, quick decision-making
Attention to detail and a proactive, anticipatory approach
Team-oriented yet decisive — collaborative, but capable of independent action when needed
Commitment to ongoing training and readiness

*This position is reserved for professionals of exceptional character, operational capability, and personal integrity. Only those who meet the highest standards of executive protection excellence will be considered.*

As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home? Will your career be a deep dive into what you love, or a series of new teams and new skills? Will you be a leader, a changemaker, a technical expert, a culture builder…or all of the above? No matter what you choose, we offer a work life that works for you, including:

Immediate medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage
Flexible family care days, paid parental leave, new parent ramp-up programs, subsidized back-up child care and more
Family building benefits including adoption and surrogacy expense reimbursement, fertility treatments, and more
Vehicle discount program for employees and family members and management leases
Tuition assistance
Established and active employee resource groups
Paid time off for individual and team community service
A generous schedule of paid holidays, including the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day
Paid time off and the option to purchase additional vacation time.

This position is a salary grade 8 and ranges from $99,100-$166,200.
Final determination of salary grade will be based on candidate's skills and experience, and base salary will be set within the applicable range according to job scope, responsibility and competitive market value.
