SGC Security Services has announced the strategic appointment of Simon Anderson as its new Commercial Director, effective November 1st, 2025. This move marks a significant step in SGC’s growth strategy, leveraging Mr. Anderson’s decades of industry expertise to enhance the company’s commercial capabilities across key sectors.
Simon brings over 30 years of exceptional experience from the security services and facilities management sector, with a proven track record of commercial success in respected organisations. He joins SGC after serving as Divisional Sales Director at OCS Group, preceded by nearly a decade in senior commercial leadership roles at Atalian Servest UK & Ireland.
Paul Macarthur, Founder and CEO of SGC Security Services, commented on the appointment: “Simon’s extensive sector knowledge, strategic approach to client partnerships, and commitment to service excellence align perfectly with SGC’s values and ambitious growth plans. His appointment strengthens our commercial capability as we continue to expand our presence across NHS, logistics, corporate, and events sectors.”
The appointment reinforces SGC’s position as a premier security services provider committed to excellence as standard, a principle that has defined the company since its founding in 2006.
Commenting on his new role, Simon Anderson said: “I have known Paul and the company for many years and always admired their professionalism and commitment in delivering the highest possible standards. Put this together with a drive to make a difference, challenging convention and the agility to deliver complex security solutions—I very much wanted to be part of this journey.”
Reflecting on SGC’s commitment to Excellence as Standard, Simon emphasised the challenges and opportunities ahead: “The biggest challenge that we face is ensuring that we not only set the standards for our brand but also for the security industry. We must ensure that our operational model gives each security officer the best support, training and equipment to maximise the investment made and to provide a secure and safe environment for all.”
He continued: “The everyday challenge of monitoring service levels, supporting our front-line colleagues and continually striving to be the best must be at the forefront of everything that we do.”
