Company

Security Guarding is a specialist skill and a practised art. Protea Security Ltd is now recognised in the UK as a primary practitioner in the security guarding business.
Success is not always measured by a healthy bank balance (although it sure feels good to have one!). Lasting success is ultimately attested to by our clients and those with whom we interact with from day to day. Protea’s twin business philosophy of consistency and integrity have kept the company in good stead and are core operating principles which are imbibed by both operational and admin staff.
Although the company has a short operating history in the UK, its founding principal, Gert Nel has some 20 years of professional experience under his belt. Gert’s distinguished police background, combined with many years in the security business, has made him an authority in security guarding. He is also recognised as one of the UK’s top security trainers, running key courses with recognised accreditations as part of the training pprogramme.
Bolstering the company’s administrative strength is a highly skilled team of operational staff, all security trained and accredited for the task. The Operations team work very hard to ensure that Protea is ‘up to speed’ with all the regulatory security standards and that the company conforms to all the current UK operating legislation. Protea is fully accredited with SIA, BSI and BSC kite marks and is an ‘Approved Security Contractor’ with many key clients across a varied field of business types. Client recommendation and testimonials are always up to date and readily attest to the craft and quality of service that many have come to expect from Protea.

All the administrative staff are highly trained too, with many who have key business qualifications and professional accreditations. It has always been company policy to recruit the best. Staff retention levels are also high, further proving that Protea is a great company to work for.
