Corporate security in London is rarely about the building alone. It is about the days your business is exposed: a restructure, a shareholder meeting, a protest outside head office. Sparta Guard supplies SIA-licensed, DBS-checked officers for those days and for everyday cover in between. Across Central London, an officer is usually on site within the hour.
Most companies already have a front desk and an alarm. What they lack is trained cover when the risk changes. Operations, HR and facilities teams book us for:
For planned hospitality such as conferences and awards dinners, see corporate event security.
| Situation | What the officer does | Where the limits are |
|---|---|---|
| Staff exit after a dismissal | Stays nearby, helps the person collect belongings, sees them out calmly | Follows your HR process and treats people with dignity |
| Demonstration outside | Secures entrances, keeps staff routes clear, records events | Cannot stop a lawful protest on the public highway; police handle public order |
| Confidential meeting | Checks names, controls access to the floor | Works to your list and your instructions |
| Suspicious visitor | Asks their business, refuses entry if instructed | Same legal powers as any member of the public |
If anyone is in danger or a crime is in progress, call 999 first. Security officers are not the police.
Growing businesses often have a head office, satellite offices and perhaps a store, each with a different arrangement. With Sparta Guard, the same WhatsApp chat or app account books cover at any of them.

Your HR, facilities or office manager explains the plan when they arrive.
A team of twelve is being made redundant on a Tuesday morning. One suited officer is on the floor from 8am until the last meeting ends.
Activists announce a demonstration outside head office. Two officers cover the entrances for the day.
The regular contract officer is ill on the morning of an investor visit. A replacement is in the lobby before the first guests arrive.
Pricing depends on the number of officers, the hours, the day and the notice you give. We confirm the price before anyone is dispatched. Businesses with recurring needs can ask about membership plans.

Corporate security protects a business’s people, premises, information and reputation. For most London companies that means trained officers on reception or patrol, plus extra cover when the risk rises, such as during redundancies, board meetings or protests. Sparta Guard supplies SIA-licensed officers for both, without a long contract.
Yes. An officer can be present on the day, stay close to the meeting rooms and help anyone leaving to collect belongings and exit calmly. They follow your HR process, treat people with dignity and are not there to intimidate anyone. Tell us in advance how many meetings are planned and where people will leave from.
You do not have to. A business can keep a contract provider for daily static cover and use Sparta Guard for gaps, peaks and sensitive days, or book all its cover with us, since there is no minimum term. Tell us how your current arrangement works and we will fit around it.
Across Central London, an officer is usually on site within the hour of your message. For planned events such as an announcement or an AGM, booking a few days ahead lets you agree the dress code and briefing in advance.
Yes. Tell us when you book whether you need a uniformed officer, a dark suit or smart business dress. Plain business dress suits boardrooms, investor visits and sensitive staff meetings, while a uniform works better as a visible deterrent at an entrance.
