Yes, but only if you are employed by only one employer and must still be state licensed accordingly. In most states, to work as a security guard for two or more employers would make you an illegal unlicensed agency which is against the law.

Are you currently hiring employees, security guards or bodyguards?
Unfortunately, we do not hire agents directly/full-time. We sub-contract to licensed and insured investigators, protection specialists and consulting firms on an as needed basis. You may submit your resume or CV via email which we will keep on file for such an instance.

In most states, no.

You cannot 1099 sub-contract. However, if there is no agency involved, the liability is directly on the client and his personal liability insurance.

Who can be an Executive Protection Specialist / Bodyguard?
Under most state laws, those wish to be an executive protection specialist/bodyguard must be licensed in their state to do so, most commonly as a Private Investigator. An executive protection specialist/ bodyguard is any plain clothes personal protection specialist, who may or may not carry a concealed firearm. Additionally, any person who carries a firearm while under employment or providing executive protection must carry their firearm concealed at all times, and must also hold the applicable state license to do so, which is different than a Concealed Carry Weapons Permit.
