Bounty hunter

You might need to move to the US if you want to join the bail enforcement industry – yes there really is one. But there is still something strangely glamorous about the idea of being a bounty hunter.

Wikipedia define a bounty hunter as an individual who captures fugitives ("hunting") for a monetary reward ("bounty"), for apprehending by law, if such laws exist. Other names include Bail Agent, Bail Enforcement Agent, Fugitive Recovery Agent, or Bail Fugitive Recovery Specialist.

Pay for this is between 10% and 45% of the bail deposit amount, and experienced bounty hunters who take high-risk assignments can make more than $100,000 (£62,000) per year.
