Close protection
Discreet, SIA Close Protection-licensed officers for individuals, families and executives.
Close protection is a different licence and a different discipline from door work, and we treat it that way. Officers hold the SIA Close Protection licence, dress to the setting, and work to a plan agreed with you before the first movement — whether that's a day of meetings in London, an evening out, or ongoing cover.
Typical work
- Individuals and families: evenings out, travel days, events, a period of concern
- Executives: meetings, site visits, public appearances
- Residential: presence at a property during a period of risk
How it works
- A confidential conversation about the concern, the routine and the people involved.
- A written plan and quote: officer numbers, hours, vehicles if needed, and what we'll do if something changes on the day.
- A named lead officer you meet before the first day.
Discretion
We don't publish client names, we don't post about jobs, and officers sign confidentiality terms. Ask us anything about this on the phone rather than by email if you'd prefer.
