Gavin de Becker & Associates (GDBA)protects the world's most influential and at-risk public figures.  Founded in 1978 by 3-time Presidential appointee, Gavin de Becker, our firm's Protectors, Analysts, and Investigators are committed to our mission of protecting human life through the assessment, prediction, and management of violence.  

GDBA's Mission: The Safety, Privacy, and Wellbeing of our Clients

Miami-based Protectors could earn up to $100,000 in first year earnings when accounting for prior relevant experience, GDBA Training Academy performance, and promotion opportunities.

Our most successful Protectors come from a variety of backgrounds and have succeeded because they communicate effectively, are physically fit, willing to learn, tell the truth, and enjoy working in a team environment.  Our promotion system is merit-based. Performance matters most, not seniority.
