Facilities Management Trusted By
A former titan of industry that’s had its protracted decline counteracted by major investment, Bradford is arguably one now one of Yorkshire’s biggest success stories. Now the UK’s official City of Culture for 2025, the importance of professional security has been taken up a notch. ProFM Group have been among the first to recognise that, designing a solution that’s truly centred around the city. We seamlessly blend oversight and central coordination from our National Operations Centre (NOC) with an extensive roster of locally-based security professionals, all of whom are Bradford locals themselves and care about protecting the city.
That centralised overview also ensures that we’re able to deploy swiftly and decisively across the whole of Bradford. Making proactive use of key thoroughfares across the city, including the A6177 Ring Road, the A647 that bridges the gap to neighbouring Leeds, the A650 up to Bingley, and Harrogate Road that reaches towards the city’s shared airport, we’re able to deploy across the whole of Bradford smoothly and effectively, and provide a service that’s built around this great city.
The bread and butter of what we do as one of the UK’s most renowned security providers, our security personnel are a cut above the rest. All based locally to ensure that they’re on hand whenever you need them, and trained to the highest standards under the Security Industry Authority (SIA), our officers are the ideal remedy to many of the city’s issues. They’re all centrally supervised and coordinated through our sophisticated, 24/7/365 National Operations Centre (NOC) to offer both total oversight and a consistent point of contact for our remote workers.
It also ensures that we’re able to deploy the right, trained professionals for Bradford’s diverse landscape of industries. That includes specialised approaches needed for some of Bradford’s premier retailers (shoplifting prevention for large-scale stores at Broadway, Kirkgate and Darley Street Market, for instance), as well as the all-encompassing overnight protection that manufacturers (like the Euroway Industrial Estate and Tong Street) and logistics titans demand.
Although a £39 million wave of investment came alongside Bradford’s position as the UK’s 2025 City of Culture, cost-effectiveness is still an absolutely crucial consideration, especially for the cohort of small businesses that have come to call the city home. With our key holding and alarm response packages, we deliver affordability without compromising on quality or availability, and always with that signature level of professionalism that ProFM Group is known for.
That’s all delivered with the same decisiveness of many of our other solutions, with an average officer-on-site time of just 30 minutes across the city. All of that combines to create a solution that’s ideal for start-ups on One City Park, the city’s University business hubs, and more industry-focused spots in Saltaire and Shipley, which are enjoying a sliver of the funding the wider city has seen.
Bradford’s urban sprawl is often a double-edged sword when it comes to security – while the area offers so much scope for development and growth, it can also present a challenge when it comes to effective security. We’ve sought to circumnavigate that, delivering a flexible and adaptive solution through mobile, vehicle-based operatives who are all local to the Bradford area, and who understand the city’s challenges inside and out. That locality is blended with our central National Operations Centre (NOC), which coordinates all of our officers and offers rapid deployment to all issues.
Another advantage of that approach is that it allows us to route smartly and with real-time traffic and road conditions in mind (essential, given Bradford’s purported position as the 12th worst city for traffic in the UK). For the most part, this sees us avoid key bottlenecks along the Ring Road at Carlisle Road and Killinghall Road, as well as Leeds Road out towards Bradford’s noisy neighbour, and instead prioritise quieter, more local routes along Midland Road past Forster Square, Westgate onto Lumb Lane, and Canal Road into the heart of Bradford itself.
With Bradford’s expanding business landscape, a more digitised approach to security has quickly become a priority, especially as security tech is merged with advanced AI detection measures and early-warning alerts. ProFM Group are at the forefront of that movement, delivering an exceptional suite of solutions, all underpinned by NSI Gold-accredited installations and servicing. We also offer unlimited, 24/7/365 monitoring of all our systems through our National Operations Centre, and immediate response in the event of an incident.
Our sophisticated solutions are ideal for an increasingly modern Bradford, offering ideal protection and AI-enhanced surveillance for the city’s BDZs (Business Development Zones) at Keighley and Shipley, and key professionals along Piccadilly and Cheapside, alongside the city’s more well-established industry players like Yorkshire Water and Morrisons. Plus, with equally comprehensive options for temporary solutions (like our solar-powered CCTV cameras or visually-verified intruder detection in our VPODs), we’re also able to support Bradford’s ongoing construction at hotspots like the massive Southern Gateway and the Bradford City Village.
A nationally-recognised hub for culture and progressive arts, Bradford’s events scene is naturally heavily grounded in those pursuits, with the 9-day Bradford Literature Festival a highlight among an equally impressive array of smaller events like the Dragon Boat Festival in July, exhibits at Cartwright Hall and shows at the Alhambra. What all of those share, though, is the pressing need for excellent security, and ProFM Group delivers exactly that.
We begin with firm foundations in our comprehensive roster of locally-based security professionals and operational teams, all of whom are SIA-licensed for a more comprehensive approach to event protection. That also ensures we can deliver a truly all-encompassing solution, from entrance services like ticket checking and car park management, to guest flow control and a smooth, fuss-free exit.

Still have questions about the security services we can deliver in the Bradford area? Here’s a selection of what we’re often asked.
Still got a Question?We do. Our Level 2 NASDU-accredited security professionals and their canine companions are on hand and available to provide extensive coverage and a leading criminal deterrent for more at-risk properties in the Bradford area. Whether that’s a vacant lot on the city’s outskirts, or an established industrial titan at Euroway or Fieldhead Business Park, we can deliver exceptional options centred around deterrence, detection and trespassing mitigation.
Yes. Emergencies can and do happen, especially when it comes to security in a major (and popular) city, and you need a supplier you can rely on to respond decisively and appropriately. That’s what ProFM Group deliver, offering same-day manned guarding responses in the majority of circumstances, making us the ideal partner in the event of an alarm failure, damaged access points, or a persistent issue with criminals.
We know the importance of a rapid response when a security incident happens, and we seek to respond in just 30 minutes on average. From the moment we detect an issue (either through a CCTV camera, intruder alarm, or emergency call from a passing member of the public), we’ll mobilise a locally-based security officer to attend your site and resolve the issue, whether that’s resetting a false alarm, addressing trespassing concerns, or liaising with the Police.
As a growing part of Yorkshire’s economic and cultural landscape, we’re proud to have played our part in keeping Bradford protected as it flourishes under that City of Culture banner. We’re delivering a robust security presence for a major residential construction project in Bradford City Centre, as well as security support for student accommodation close to the UoB campus. We’ve historically also supported one of Bradford’s city-centre hotels with ad-hoc protection.
Bradford’s calendar of events is only set to grow, particularly given its literary pre-eminence with the Brontë sisters calling the city home. We’ve developed an extensive suite of solutions with that popularity in mind, including options for:
That’s all fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) for additional peace of mind
Every guard we provide – from single-night coverage at critical infrastructure, to multi-year partnerships – is fully licensed by the SIA, and has passed our own stringent vetting and screening process that’s in line with BS7858. They’ll also have up-to-date training in the latest guidance around counter-terrorism – an especially important consideration after Martyn’s Law.
Exclusive to ProFM Group, our officers will also complete additional, site-specific training through our online training matrix. That not only ensures they’re better equipped to deliver the expertise you’re expecting, but that they’ve got key skills designed with your site in mind (such as shoplifting prevention for retailers at The Broadway, or gatehouse operations at a logistics facility on the Euroway Industrial Park).
