Aegis Support Services announces senior leadership promotions to support continued growth

The national security services and facilities management business, Aegis Support Services, has announced a series of senior leadership promotions as part of the business’s continued growth and long-term development.

The appointments recognise the exceptional dedication, leadership, and contribution of key individuals who have played an instrumental role in the success of the business.

The promotions include:

  • Tariq Khalil, who steps into the role of Chief Operating Officer (COO) from Security Director
  • Darren Austin, who has been promoted from Head of Operations to Director of National Operations & Strategic Delivery
  • Carol Raymond, promoted to Director of Mobile Patrol & Response
  • Jacki Jenkins, promoted to Head of People & Corporate Services
  • Faz Ahmed, promoted from Head of Finance to Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO)
  • Muddasar Hussain has been promoted to the position of Business Support Manager.

These appointments come at a significant stage in the company’s journey, following sustained organic growth across both its security and facilities management (FM) divisions. In recent years, the business has continued to expand its national footprint, strengthen client partnerships, invested in a new security and control centre in Milton Keynes, and driven increased demand across its key sectors.

The enhanced leadership structure has been designed to support this momentum, ensuring the business remains agile, client-focused, and well-positioned for further national expansion.

They also reflect Aegis Support Services’ commitment to recognising talent from within and strengthening its leadership team to support the company’s ambitious vision for the future. Each individual brings a wealth of experience, professionalism, and passion to their new role, helping position the business for continued success across the UK security and FM sectors.

Commenting on the promotions, CEO Qadeer Qureshi commented:

“At Aegis Support Services, our people are at the heart of everything we do, and these promotions represent not only professional achievement, but the strength of the culture we continue to build across the business. Each of these individuals has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership, commitment, and a clear dedication to delivering a first-class service for our clients.

As we continue to expand nationally and grow our service offering, we must continue investing in strong leadership and creating opportunities for talented people to grow within the organisation. I am incredibly proud of what this team has achieved and excited to see the impact they will make in their new roles as we drive our next chapter of growth.”
