The East Midlands acts as the engine room of the UK’s logistics and manufacturing economy – and its security demands reflect this status. Home to the UK’s only inland freeport, the country’s busiest pure cargo airport at Castle Donington, and the Golden Triangle logistics corridor at the intersection of the M1, A42 and A46, the region handles a greater concentration of freight and industrial activity than almost anywhere else in the country.
ProFM Group delivers East Midlands security guards for static guarding and mobile patrol solutions built around that complexity, with officers who know the region’s risk landscape from the ground up. The region’s economic identity stretches well beyond logistics. From Rolls-Royce’s aerospace operations in Derby and advanced manufacturing clusters across Nottinghamshire and Northamptonshire, to the retail hubs of Leicester’s Highcross and Nottingham’s Victoria Centre, every sector carries a distinct security requirement. Every officer is SIA-licensed and BS:7858-vetted, locally based, and coordinated around the clock from our National Operations Centre (NOC) across six counties.

A region as commercially active as the East Midlands demands security technology that operates at scale, in real time and without compromise. ProFM Group holds NSI Gold accreditation across all installation and engineering work, with Paxton Gold status for access controls and intruder alarm systems, backed by 24/7 monitoring through our NOC. Every system is designed from scratch – whether that’s a bespoke CCTV installation for a distribution centre at DIRFT in Daventry, an access control installation at Infinity Park Derby, or a full surveillance overhaul for retail operations on Nottingham’s Thane Road.
For the region’s construction sites, remote industrial premises and developing logistics parks, our temporary security technology is the natural choice. Solar-powered CCTV towers, VPOD visually-verified intruder alarms and AI-assisted ProEyez smart perimeter detection all operate without a fixed power source – ideal for East Midlands Freeport’s expanding infrastructure and new logistics developments across Leicestershire and Northamptonshire.
The East Midlands hosts a varied events calendar – from Download Festival at Donington Park and Nottingham’s Splendour to race days at Donington Park Circuit, county shows across Lincolnshire and Derbyshire, and major sporting fixtures at the City Ground, Pride Park and the Mattioli Woods Welford Road. With Martyn’s Law now in effect, the obligation on organisers to deliver a fully compliant security operation is undeniable – and ProFM Group are built to meet it.
Our SIA-licensed event security officers are trained in crowd management, conflict de-escalation and WAVE (Welfare & Vulnerability Engagement) protocols. Our approach is end-to-end – from bespoke risk assessments and operational planning through to full post-event demobilisation – covering access control, ticketing, perimeter security, stageside personnel and emergency response, all under one provider.
