Congratulations to our March EOTM Matthew Penn…

Matt has vastly improved on his professional standards, availability, and reliability over the recent years since joining our team in February 2021.  Having worked the majority of last year’s high profile golfing events consistently to a very high standard with no issues Matt has also recently settled in regular positions within our high-end retail clients alongside a regular position within the night time industry and leisure sector which was all new to him. Matt is always very pleasant to customers and a great team member to work alongside with. He has developed from being an event steward to having a full time career in the security industry. James Glackin, Managing Director, said “I believe Matt’s upturn in standards across all the companies 3 sectors of security services definitely deserves recognition.”. Well done Matt !! #SecurityScotlandEOTM

Supervisor & Key Personnel

Strong leadership & management is all about how far you can project your company ethos. With a team eager to do just that, the last 2 Sunday afternoons, we brought together 50 of our Supervisors & Key Personnel to our Glasgow Head Office to attend our in-house 5-hour training session ahead of our busy summer schedule to revisit and refocus our core company values, expectations, culture, policies, and processes. The interaction and engagement from all attendees was fantastic and included detailed interactive group workshops on briefings and escalation procedures. At Security Scotland our people are our product, and we believe equipping them with the correct tools to carry out their duties effectively is our responsibility and key to the service delivery of safe events. Our aim now is these 50 company representatives project our company ethos to the teams they will lead throughout the summer and the cascading of our key service differentiators carries

Global Recycling Day

Did you know that Security Scotland aim to be an eco-friendly company? We take as many steps as we can to be as environmentally neutral as possible. One way we do this is by making sure that we recycle. Not only at our head office, but also operationally, encouraging everyone to bring reusable bottles where possible, recycle and to use any eco facilities provided by our clients. Not only do we get rid of waste securely, but we ensure that the company we use for this is fully committed to Saving the Planet. We use @HighlanderSecurityShredding, Scotland’s largest independent paper recycling company who recycle 100% of our shredded paper which then gets sent to UK mills to be repulped and made into new paper and tissue products.  To show our support for Global Recycling Day today, see our Security Scotland Eco poster. Feel free to put this up in your office to support
