About NxtGen Security
NxtGen Security is a professional private security firm headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, providing armed and unarmed on-site guarding services and additional security solutions throughout the Commonwealth.
We serve organizations across a broad range of industries, emphasizing dependable service, operational excellence, accountability, and long-term client relationships. Our reputation and commitment to high professional standards are central to how we operate and continue to grow.
The Opportunity
We are seeking established, results-driven B2B sales and business development professionals to independently originate and develop new, long-term client accounts for NxtGen Security's on-site guarding services.
This is a fully remote, 100% commission-based independent contractor opportunity, with no guaranteed salary or hourly compensation. Commission rates range from 3% to 5% of eligible first-year contract value, negotiated and agreed upon in writing before prospecting begins.
Our primary business development territory is Boston and surrounding communities, generally within a 50-mile radius, with additional opportunities throughout Massachusetts.
Business development is conducted remotely through targeted cold calling, personalized email outreach, professional networking, referrals, and strategic follow-up. No office attendance, travel, or in-person prospecting is required.
NxtGen Security's management team handles in-person client consultations, property walkthroughs, security assessments, proposals, and final contract negotiations.
Our focus is on recurring guarding contracts with commercial properties, educational institutions, residential communities, retail establishments, hospitality venues, and other organizations requiring professional security services.
This is not an entry-level sales or appointment-setting position. We are seeking proven professionals capable of independently generating qualified business, establishing credibility with decision-makers, and developing lasting commercial relationships.
Responsibilities
- Identify and pursue qualified organizations whose security needs align with NxtGen's services and capabilities.
- Establish professional relationships with property owners, property managers, facility directors, business owners, and other decision-makers.
- Independently originate and develop commercial opportunities through targeted remote outreach and relationship-building.
- Qualify prospective accounts by understanding security requirements, anticipated coverage needs, decision-making processes, and timelines.
- Coordinate qualified introductions and consultations with NxtGen Security management and support opportunities throughout the client acquisition process.
- Maintain accurate records of prospective accounts, communications, and follow-up activity.
- Represent NxtGen Security accurately and professionally using approved company information and materials.
NxtGen Security will provide an orientation to its services, capabilities, and professional standards. Management retains responsibility for client assessments, pricing, proposals, contract approval, and service delivery.
Qualifications
Required:
- Minimum 3 years of successful B2B sales, business development, or commercial client acquisition experience.
- Demonstrated success independently generating new business through outbound prospecting.
- A proven track record of originating opportunities that resulted in signed commercial agreements.
- Strong telephone communication, professional writing, relationship-building, and organizational skills.
- Sound professional judgment, initiative, and the ability to credibly represent an established service provider.
- Ability to independently manage business development activities and maintain consistent, professional follow-up.
Preferred:
- An established independent B2B sales or business development consulting practice.
- Experience selling contract security, facilities management, commercial property services, staffing, or comparable recurring B2B services.
- Existing professional relationships within Greater Boston or Massachusetts.
- Demonstrated success originating substantial, long-term commercial service contracts.
Commission & Earning Potential
Compensation is 100% commission-based, with no guaranteed salary or hourly pay.
- Commission Rate: Individually negotiated between 3% and 5% of eligible first-year contract value. The maximum 5% rate is not guaranteed.
- Qualifying Accounts: Commissions apply to approved new client accounts attributable to documented business development efforts.
- Eligibility: Qualifying accounts must result in an executed service agreement, commencement of security services, and receipt of the client's initial payment.
- Payment Terms: Commission calculations, account attribution, qualifying requirements, payment deadlines, and treatment of contract changes or cancellations are established in a written agreement before authorized prospecting begins.
- Structure: One-time acquisition commission per qualifying account, with no ongoing residual or renewal commissions.
Understanding the Opportunity
Recurring security guarding contracts can represent approximately $100,000–$500,000 in annualized contract value, with opportunities for larger agreements depending on coverage requirements, staffing levels, and scope of services.
Illustrative Commission Calculations:
- $100,000 in eligible first-year contract value at an agreed 3% rate = $3,000 commission
- $250,000 in eligible first-year contract value at an agreed 4% rate = $10,000 commission
- $500,000 in eligible first-year contract value at an agreed 5% rate = $25,000 commission
These examples illustrate potential commission calculations, not guaranteed earnings, available contracts, or expected contract values. Annualized contract value does not necessarily equal eligible first-year contract value. Actual compensation depends on qualifying accounts and the terms of the written agreement.
Commissions are tied exclusively to successfully acquired qualifying accounts. Calls, leads, appointments, and unsuccessful proposals alone do not earn compensation.
Professional Standards
NxtGen Security places significant value on its reputation, client relationships, and quality of service.
We seek experienced professionals who demonstrate integrity, sound judgment, and a consultative, relationship-driven approach to business development. We prioritize meaningful client relationships over aggressive or indiscriminate solicitation.
All outreach must be accurate, respectful, legally compliant, and consistent with approved company standards. Misleading representations, high-pressure tactics, unauthorized commitments, and continued solicitation after a request to stop are prohibited.
Confidential company, client, and prospective client information must be protected.
Applicants operating established independent sales practices, including those with existing business development teams, may describe their capabilities. Any proposed team-based arrangement requires separate review and written terms.
How to Apply
Submit your resume or professional background through Indeed, along with a brief overview of your relevant B2B sales experience, the types of commercial services you have sold, and one or two examples of accounts you personally originated and helped secure.
Please exclude confidential client information.
Candidates whose experience and qualifications align with our requirements may be contacted by NxtGen Security to arrange an initial phone conversation or virtual interview. This discussion will provide an opportunity to learn more about your background, business development approach, and potential fit with our company.

- Experience conducting risk assessments, vulnerability scans, or penetration tests
- Familiarity with compliance frameworks including NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, or FedRAMP

Tips for Your Remote Security Consultant Job Search
Document your remote security work clearly
Remote employers can't watch you work, so your written deliverables do the talking. Build a portfolio of sanitized assessment reports, remediation plans, or risk summaries that show how you communicate findings to non-technical stakeholders asynchronously, without relying on in-person walkthroughs.
Highlight async tools and remote security workflows
Call out your experience with Slack, Jira, Confluence, or ticketing systems in the context of security engagements. Remote security consultant teams rely on documentation-first workflows, and showing you already operate that way signals you won't need hand-holding on a distributed team.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote security consultant openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your focus area and apply directly without sorting through unrelated listings or on-site roles mixed into search results.
Target remote-first firms and managed security providers
Remote-first companies and managed security service providers have built their entire delivery model around distributed work, which makes them faster to onboard remote consultants and less likely to pull roles back on-site. Focus your search on organizations that have publicly committed to remote operations.
Remote Security Consultant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote security consultant job?
Remote security consultant roles go to candidates who can demonstrate self-direction and strong written communication alongside technical credentials. Remote employers screen for experience with async collaboration tools, the ability to document findings clearly without in-person walkthroughs, and certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or Security+. A portfolio of completed assessments, audit reports, or remediation projects gives you a concrete edge over candidates with credentials alone.
Which companies hire remote security consultants?
Remote security consultant roles are posted by Fellowship Health Resources, Ahead, and World Wide Technology and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first managed security service providers, distributed financial services firms, and cloud-native technology companies are among the most consistent hirers of security consultants in remote formats.
Can you get a remote security consultant job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level security consultant roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one with minimal oversight. Smaller remote-first companies and managed security service providers are more open to early-career candidates. Showing a home lab, a completed CTF challenge, a relevant certification, or a documented vulnerability assessment replaces the absence of formal work history.
Do you need a degree for remote security consultant jobs?
Not always. Remote employers in security consulting weigh certifications, demonstrable technical skills, and a history of completed engagements heavily alongside or instead of a degree. Credentials such as CISSP, CEH, or CompTIA Security+, combined with documented project outcomes or a strong portfolio, carry significant weight, particularly at remote-first firms and smaller consultancies that prioritize what you can deliver.
Which industries hire the most remote security consultants?
Remote security consultant roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services and Technology & Software, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors rely on distributed teams handling sensitive data, regulated systems, or complex infrastructure across multiple locations, which makes remote security consultants a practical and cost-effective staffing choice.
