A security/risk management company can only be defined as 'professional' or 'specialist' when they have a proven and consistent track record of delivering a sterling service at the upper end of executive and government protection.

 

To be a Close Protection Officer for a client or principal is a task of immense personal pride and responsibility. Our Close Protection Officers are qualified and trained to the highest standards. Pinnacle operators have previously held positions in the British Royalty and Diplomatic Protection Squad; protection of the Saudi Royal Family and senior military personnel to name but a few. All of our Close Protection Officers work to a very high professional standard, are efficient, courteous, diligent and act with integrity in all they do.

 

Pinnacle Close Protection Operators are either previously known to us or have been highly recommended by accredited companies in the industry. Without exception, we screen and vet all operatives to BS 7858 compliance and ensure that these standards are upheld. In doing so, we service our clients’ expectations and requirements.

• Research and planning to identify and prevent potential threats or disruption.
• Constant monitoring to eliminate potential threats and where appropriate react to threatening situations to minimise risk to principals.
• Provide 24/7 protection to the principal(s) in business, social and domestic environments.
• Provide clients with highly qualified defensive drivers to and from venues.
