Showforce has always provided top quality crew so the move into the provision of security personnel was a natural one. Our well-presented, articulate and qualified staff really stand out from the pack and have been a welcome addition to the team. Few industries are experiencing the rate of change that the security market is seeing and changing legislation on licensing for personnel from doorman to site security is raising standards of professionalism. Whether you require door staff, retail or general security personnel, we will exceed your expectations wherever and whenever you need us. Click the quick links below to see more information.

  Our Advantages

No baggage - we didn't evolve as most traditional security companies did, so we haven't acquired the bad habits that are common to so many of them.

A fresh attitude - We are involved in the production of some of the most prestigious live events from top fashion shows to VIP brand launches. The skills necessary to manage invited guests at these events from a security point of view are high. The same skills are an asset in high-end retail security where diplomacy and tact can be as important as functional knowledge and capabilities. Back to the top.

      Retail Security

    Born out of the corporate events industry, our team sets benchmarks in professionalism, presentation and personal skills with almost two decades in the business of event staffing and security management.

    We bring worldwide experience from the myriad of customer-facing environments that the events industry creates. Showforce sets up and staffs brand-focussed occasions for hundreds of blue chip companies every year.

    It has therefore been a logical progression for us to transfer those client-facing skills into the retail environment - particularly the most prestigious end of the retail spectrum where customer service is an essential aspect of generating brand loyalty.

    Our client list includes Prada, Miu Miu, Mexx, Espirit, 20/20 Optical store and Tod’s UK Ltd. To illustrate the synergies that we find in our work for top brands, we also provide security to the events and venue industry.     Back to the top.    		  
      Event and Venue Security

    Showforce has gradually added this resource to its services port-folio in recent years. We now offer SIA licensed front or back-of-house officers, plus specialist teams from dog handlers to search teams – whether bombs, drugs or both is your concern.

    On a daily basis we provide security personnel to fixed sites – from venues to construction sites, offices to residential complexes. We support our event activities with security personnel to both protect property, people and/or to supervise crowd movement and access.

    Our staff are selected and trained to perform tasks specific to client needs. There is a dramatic difference between the skills needed to sympathetically, but effectively man an event, versus those needed to secure a warehouse through the night. We appoint staff appropriate to the task at hand and are able to draw from a Nation-wide pool of licensed professional to do so.     Back to the top.
