The best security job is the one where nothing happens.

That's risk consultancy in a line. Spot the threat before it finds you, then build the plan that keeps people and assets safe.

It's what our partner Minimal Risk Consultancy do, UK and overseas.

Father's Day. Sunday 21st June.

Some dads are easy. A book, a bottle, done.

Then there's the operator. Owns three of everything, and particular about all of it.

So let him choose.

Why we're here.

The Ops Con started with one job: make the step out of service easier.

That's still the heart of it. But transition isn't a single leap you make in year one and never think about again.

It's the second contract. The pivot from operator to team leader. The course you take ten years in. The day the work changes, and you change with it.

So yes, we're built for the ones just starting out. And we're here for the operators twenty years deep, still sharpening, still moving.

Wherever you are in it, you're one of us.

New partner in the ranks.

Welcome to 🫡.

Built by a former sniper who couldn’t find apparel that actually represented his craft — so he made it himself. T-shirts, hoodies, hats, flags. Gear that means something to the people wearing it.

The name comes from the trade. The trace is the visible trail a bullet leaves as it cuts through the air. Seen only by trained eyes.

That’s the kind of brand we want in the store. Ops Con members get 10% off when they shop The Trace through theopscon.com.

The Ops Con, explained.

Leaving service is strange. Exciting one day, terrifying the next.

For years you’ve known exactly who you are and what you’re doing at 0600 tomorrow. Then it’s gone. And everyone expects you to just crack on.

Close protection. Executive driving. Security and risk management. Real careers, in demand worldwide. But there’s no map, no handover, no one walking the route with you.

So we built The Ops Con. Accredited training. A jobs board. Funding support. A global partner network. One platform, run by people who’ve made the move themselves.

Your service shaped who you are. What comes next is yours to take.

We’ve done the recce. You make the move.
