Security Drivers for C-Suite Executives

A security driver for a C-suite executive is more than a chauffeur. The driver is the part of the protection program that controls the vehicle, the route and the moments when an executive is most predictable: leaving home, arriving at the office, moving between meetings and reaching the airport. AMERINE plans protective driving around the executive's schedule, public profile and existing corporate security arrangements.

AMERINE Executive Logistics is led by Founder & CEO Scott Jones, a former U.S. Secret Service Special Agent, and holds Texas Private Security License No. C31012001. Scope, personnel, vehicles, locations, schedule and terms are confirmed in writing for every engagement.

Why C-suite executives use security drivers

Executives with a public profile follow routines that others can observe: the same office, the same board meetings, the same investor events. Ground movement is often where that routine is most visible. A security driver brings route planning and protective awareness to that movement, so the executive's time in the car is planned rather than left to a general car service.

What a security driver engagement can include

Each engagement is scoped for the executive. Depending on the assessment, it may include:

Route planning: primary and alternate routes considered before each movement.
Airport and FBO transfers: arrivals and departures coordinated with the executive's travel schedule, alongside executive transportation.
Board meetings, roadshows and investor events: ground movements planned around the agenda.
Coordination with a protection detail: when executive protection is part of the program, the driver works as one part of that team.
Coordination with corporate security: responsibilities agreed with the company's security lead or chief of staff.

Security driver or car service?

A car service moves passengers from one address to another. A security driver plans the movement around the executive's exposure and coordinates with the wider protection program. For a fuller comparison, read security driver vs. car service and the security driver services overview.

How an engagement is planned

Planning starts with an assessment of the executive's profile, schedule and locations. The assessment comes before a recommendation on drivers, vehicles or coverage hours. The result is a written scope stating what is included, what is excluded and how the driver coordinates with any existing security team. Locations outside the Dallas–Fort Worth home market are evaluated individually, and availability is confirmed in writing.
