What corporate security officers do
- Front-of-house reception and lobby security, greeting visitors and issuing passes.
- Access control for staff, contractors and deliveries, including turnstiles and card systems.
- Monitoring CCTV and alarm panels from the security desk.
- Patrolling office floors, plant rooms and car parks out of hours.
- Supporting fire evacuation, lockdown and first aid procedures.
- Handling post, couriers and suspicious items under your procedures.
Presentation matters
In a corporate building, security is often the first person a client meets. Our officers are smartly presented, courteous and trained to handle visitors, senior staff and VIP guests discreetly. For directors and high-profile visitors we can add close protection.

Keeping staff safe
Corporate security is about people as much as property. Our officers help with lone working at night, late leavers walking to car parks, protests or unwanted visitors at the front door, and medical emergencies in the building. They are first aid trained and follow your escalation plan.

Corporate & Office Security FAQs
Can your officers wear a suit instead of a uniform?
Yes. For corporate receptions we can provide officers in business dress or in a smart security uniform, whichever suits your building.
Can you work with our visitor management system?
Yes. Our officers can use your visitor and access control systems after a short handover from your facilities team.
Do you cover multi-tenant office buildings?
Yes. We work with building managers to secure shared entrances, car parks and common areas for all tenants.
Can you provide cover during an office move or refit?
Yes. During moves and refits, contractors, open doors and valuable equipment raise the risk. We can add temporary officers for the project.
