About Us

King Safety and Security Ltd is a leading, London-based private security company and risk consultancy, specialising in global close protection services for a diverse range of clients. We are committed to delivering world class security solutions that prioritise quality and professionalism, facilitating the responsible seizing of opportunity for our clients.

Founded by Matthew Beer in 2014, King Safety and Security was established to address the inconsistencies in standards and service quality across the private security industry. We are the first and only company in the UK to recruit close protection operatives through a standardised in-house selection process, designed to assess both hard and soft skills. This ensures that KSS consistently deploys the best available CP talent, that our clients receive the highest level of service and protection, and that our operatives know all of their colleagues have met the same exacting standard.

King Safety and Security is also proud to offer ‘Project Insight,’ a free mentorship programme aimed at new entrants to the close protection field. This initiative helps aspiring close protection operatives build the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the industry.

Recent operations include safeguarding media crews in hostile regions, providing security for music artists on tour, protecting Middle Eastern royal families during their visits to London, and delivering full protection for ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWI) and their families.

Driven by the principles of quality, consistency, and integrity, King Safety and Security is dedicated to providing the highest quality of service whilst raising standards across the close protection sector.

For our clients, this means total confidence in the personnel protecting their interests.
