Lord Jacob Bergmanis followed his father into service in the Imperial Household in 1976 after completing his studies at the University of Cesis. He served briefly under the Lord Baliff of Kuldiga before moving to the office of the Lord Constable.

In 1989, Lord Jacob moved to the office of the Lord Sheriff and remained their until he was named in 2001 to become the new Lord Sheriff. In this capacity, Lord Jacob is responsible for the security of all Imperial properties. With Lords Baliff responsible for the palaces in Kuldiga and Sigulda, and lesser officials responsible for lesser estates, the Lord Sheriff is primarily concerned with the palaces and castles in the captial itself. By extension, he is also responsible for the safety of the Imperial family itself and, as a result, the Lord Sheriff works closely with the Captain of the Imperial Guard.

During his tenure, Lord Jacob has developed a reputation for fierce loyalty to the Emperor. He is also known for his ultra-conservative views on Imperial authority.
