Providing highly trained and experienced event security staff

We place great emphasis on providing the right calibre of security officers for every event we support.

All our frontline security officers are SIA-licensed, screened and vetted to British Standard 7858. Our officers receive specialist security training through our training arm, Aegis Training, covering areas including safeguarding, first aid, conflict management and physical intervention in line with industry standards.

Our teams also undertake continuous professional development, and where required, we provide event-and-site-specific briefings and training to ensure officers understand their responsibilities, the venue and the security arrangements in place.

Professional event security you can rely on

Effective event security is about more than responding when something goes wrong. A professional and visible security presence can help prevent incidents, manage risks and provide reassurance to everyone attending or working at an event.

Our experienced operational and management teams work closely with clients before and during events to ensure security resources are deployed effectively and that our teams can respond quickly should circumstances change.

We also understand that you will want to provide a memorable experience for your guests – this is why our event security teams are trained in delivering excellent customer service.
