SalesMarines to help PSA members hire US veterans

WESTMINSTER, Colo.—PSA recently announced a partnership with�Matterhorn Consulting�to enable PSA members to hire military veterans.

The Veteran Hiring Program, SalesMarines, is a new service from Matterhorn Consulting that helps veterans from the United States military find employment, matching up employers' needs with veterans' skill sets. The team is led by Paul Boucherle, a Marine Corps veteran who served during the Vietnam War. His first-hand experience with the military has motivated him to help veterans transition their military skills into the civilian workplace.

“Implementing a Veteran Hiring Program (VHP) can be very challenging for many PSA owners and we wanted to demystify and simplify the risk and process,” Paul Boucherle, CPP CSC and founder of Matterhorn Consulting, said in a prepared statement. “We are leveraging our 39 years of security industry experience and 6 years of military service (USMC) to help veterans and infuse integrators with strong, disciplined and well-trained talent.”

The SalesMarines team works with employers to establish productive relationships with the veterans who would fit within the company culture, the announcement read. They offer support to the employer on the specialized hiring process and benefits that are associated with this classification of employment.

“Employing our United States veterans is a fundamental way to give back to those who have fought for our country,” Bill Bozeman, president and CEO of PSA, said in the announcement. “Paul and his team have demonstrated the devotion to helping veterans make the switch into civilian life and PSA is honored to provide this partnership to our integrators, opening the job pool up for these brave individuals.”

As part of PSA's Business Solutions program, Matterhorn Consulting has provided PSA with experienced consulting, thought leadership and training content for the last 14 years.
