Security Guarding

We understand the value security guarding brings to your business.

Dedicated to the security, safety and wellbeing of our customers’ people, and property, we operate to the highest possible standards: always focusing on customer care, brand protection, and safety.

Fully SIA accredited, we work with customers across a diverse range of industries and sectors from Banking, Legal & Professional services to Public Venues and Education.

Our security guarding solutions combine physical guarding, keyholding, response and all-important front of house roles to achieve exceptional results.

Physical Security Guarding

Security Industry Authority (SIA) licensed

Our professional guards are all Security Industry Authority (SIA) licensed and have completed extensive in-house security guarding training to the highest industry standards. This means that customers receive a level of service that always meets their exact requirements.

Front of House and Reception

Promoting a safe welcoming atmosphere

Keyholding & Mobile Response - Corps Security

Keyholding and Mobile Response

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

‘‘CBRE and Centrica were looking for a security partner with integrity. One that would strive to do the best not just in relation to the service, but for frontline security teams and could offer wider capability with a personal touch. Having worked with Corps for many years, CBRE knew they could offer all of this and more and they certainly haven’t disappointed. Since taking over the contract the service has gone from strength to strength’’

All our staff are vetted to BS 7858 and take part in a thorough screening process before we take them on.

Once employed we provide our people with training and learning opportunities that not only ensure a great service for our customers, but also develop our colleagues both professionally and personally. We want to help building fantastic careers for the future.

We also invest in the latest technology and use integrated online systems to monitor patrols and service delivery compliance as well as online portals to streamline reporting. This approach makes our service almost paperless.
