Facilities Management Trusted By
One of England’s historic hubs, best characterised by its imposing cathedral and the closely guarded Mappa Mundi, Hereford’s Tudor-fronted facades and time immemorial city status don’t make it immune to the issues that threaten the modern security landscape. ProFM Group’s bespoke approach allows us to consider that heritage in all we do, delivering professional security services that respect this historic slice of Britain. We do that through a dual-pronged approach – local, Hereford-based security professionals deliver an on-the-ground service that’s centrally coordinated by our National Operations Centre (NOC), ensuring an all-encompassing solution for the city.
That locality and Hereford-centric approach means that we’re reducing our carbon footprint while simultaneously offering that rapid, immediate service you need to feel safe. Our guards, coupled with real-time oversight from our NOC, deploy rapidly across the city’s network of routes, including the A438 and A49 that form a confluence on the major roundabout at Newmarket Street, the A4103 that connects to Hereford’s Link Road, and key central roads like Widemarsh Street and Breinton Road.
One of the most integral parts of building a sustainable and people-focused solution for security is manned guarding. Over our 30 years in business, we’ve sought to take that to the next level, delivering the very best for the businesses we serve. All of our officers are licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA), and live in and around the Hereford area to ensure they understand the challenges you face. Coupled with central organisation and deployment through our National Operations Centre (NOC), we’re able to ensure an all-encompassing approach to securing Hereford.
That expertise also allows us to deploy specialised teams and operational approaches to suit your sector, your key risk factors, and what you have in mind for security in Hereford. Whether that’s our exceptional teams on hand to secure key construction projects like the Hereford Transport Hub or housing developments in Bullingham and Holmer, or retail-trained operatives on hand to reduce theft and mitigate shrinkage at the Old Market or Maylord Orchards, we’ve got you covered with bespoke, sector-specific packages for security.
Of course, while Hereford’s £20 million investment from the government’s Level Up fund is a welcome boon, that might not always reflect in the budgets for key services like security. It doesn’t mean that it should be neglected, however, and with our options for keyholding and alarm response, we deliver ultimate professionalism without breaking the bank. All of our response operatives are fully SIA-licensed, too, and there’s no compromise when it comes to availability, either – you’ll have full 24/7 response, with unlimited support from our National Operations Centre (NOC).
While they’re flexible enough to adapt to a range of different premises, our more affordable options (like keyholding, alarm response, and lock and unlock services) are perfectly suited to some of Hereford’s budding enterprises in the Old Market and High Town, as well as larger units and industrial estates towards Rotherwas. Plus, with an average Hereford-wide response time of just 30 minutes, we’re never far away.
As the modern threat landscape evolves, security must do too. While officers can be trained exceptionally well, security tech needs to be just as robust, and that’s something we’re proud to champion here at ProFM Group. We’re accredited to Gold level by the National Security Inspectorate (NSI) for all of our installations and engineering work – a proven certificate of quality and expertise. We also offer comprehensive, round-the-clock monitoring for all the tech we install, with a rapid response on hand whenever you need it.
It’s that versatility that sees us deliver solutions that are both tailored to suit individual requirements and offer unparalleled coverage and solutions. From single-camera installs at smaller venues like retailers and hospitality specialists by the Street Markets on High Town, to transformative packages designed for logistics and manufacturing giants in areas like Skylon Park and the wider Rotherwas Industrial area, ProFM Group deliver a tailor-made solution that’s designed with you in mind.
A counterpart to the more tried-and-true static guarding, our mobile security options offer an equally robust and comprehensive approach to protective services. At ProFM Group, we go above and beyond in delivering a solution that’s centred around Hereford – our officers are all local to the area and care about the issues that matter to its businesses and people, plus they’re equipped with vehicles to ensure a rapid and decisive response to all incidents. That’s all centrally coordinated by our trained operatives in ProFM’s National Operations Centre (NOC).
That consistent oversight allows for more intelligent routing across Hereford, too. We’re able to use real-time data to avoid key traffic hotspots (like those around Edgar Street, Newmarket Street, and Eign Street) and bottlenecks to deliver an average city-wide response time of just 30 minutes. Our network of locally-based security professionals also means we’re able to utilise some of the lesser-known routes across Hereford, too, including clearer routes along Venns Lane and Ledbury Road.
Perhaps one of the longest-standing cities in terms of its events, with the historic May Fair having run for upwards of 900 years. Modern Hereford still draws its fair share of the crowds, with the Three Choirs Festival at the city’s cathedral, the Hereford Indie Festival at the Yard, and the Racecourse’s packed calendar all offering something to suit all tastes. And with ProFM Group’s approach to event security, we’re able to deliver comprehensive, tailored solutions to suit Hereford’s diverse schedule.
That’s all fully self-contained, too. From specialist solutions for ticketing and entrance protection (essential for venues like The Courtyard), to car park and traffic management for city-centre celebrations, right through to bespoke security plans for your event, we deliver a truly end-to-end service.

Still got a Question?Our average response time across the Hereford area is 30 minutes. That means that, from the moment an incident is detected or an alarm is raised, we’ll have a manned security presence at your site to address the issue in half an hour on average. That’s especially important for some of the city’s more out-of-the-way areas, like those along Ledbury Road and out towards the Waterworks Museum by Broomy Hill.
Site security is an absolutely crucial part of keeping your guests, staff and assets protected, and we take that seriously. All of our security guards are fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA), and have passed a rigorous, BS7858-compliant vetting check before they’ll be able to secure your property. They’ll also have a Basic DBS certificate and an Emergency First Aid qualification as part of that initial training.
Beyond that, we’re committed to delivering the very best our industry has to offer. All our officers will have mandatory monthly training through our online training platform that’s specific to the role they complete (threat mitigation, Occupier’s Liability, and lone working safety for those who secure a construction site, for instance).
We know that the natural choice is to opt for a company that’s local. ProFM Group seek to blend that locality with our nationwide, industry-leading expertise – we combine trained and SIA-licensed, Hereford-based security officers with our own understanding to deliver a service that’s truly local in its focus, but national in its scale and scope.
Partnering with ProFM Group also allows you to grow and expand without the concerns that your security can’t match up. Hereford plays host to a range of major businesses, including the nationally-renowned Bulmers, and with its place as a Fairtrade City and a hub for culture, that’s only set to grow. Choosing a security company with national expertise is the future-forward choice.
We do. Hereford is one of the UK’s most historic cathedral cities, and naturally home to a significant cohort of listed buildings (including the Cathedral itself, and dozens of properties along Castle Street and Quay Street). We’re delighted to be able to offer that more delicate approach to security that listed buildings demand, including corporate concierge officers, specialised approaches to locking and unlocking, and non-intrusive options for CCTV and access controls.
As an industry leader in professional security solutions, we don’t rest on our laurels when it comes to providing more nuanced or specialist approaches to protective services. As part of that, we can offer a comprehensive catalogue of those harder-to-procure solutions, including:
No matter how complex or refined your security requirements are, ProFM Group can be your trusted partner.
We pride ourselves on responding rapidly to any call we receive, with manned security guarding available on the same day in the majority of circumstances, thanks to our expansive network of locally-based security officers. While we’d always advise planning in advance when possible, we know that emergencies can and do happen, and we’re proud to support if the worst does occur (a broken shutter at a warehouse in Rotherwas, for instance).
