Last week we had the pleasure of welcoming The Mayor of Thurrock to our Head Office.

Bold are huge advocates of supporting our local community and wholeheartedly support Madame Mayors charitable endeavours which is proven by our recent sizable donation.

We hope to continue our relationship with our local council and the Mayor and support them moving forward.

Imposter syndrome, as defined in the Cambridge dictionary, is ‘the feeling that your achievements are not real or that you do not deserve praise or success’, often seen in women.

Those who suffer belittle their own performance, downplay their own success, and experience crippling self-doubt. This makes them unlikely to pursue positions within the workforce, that they are very able and qualified to excel within, out of fear of not living up to expectations.

This mentality, perpetrated by a society where women are not always encouraged or supported to reach their full potential, as evidenced by the gender pay gap and the underrepresentation of women within senior roles, leads to talent being wasted or missed.

This is particularly true for male dominated industries, much like the private security industry, and that’s why Bold is on a mission to ‘Stop the Imposter’!

We are launching a campaign to empower women, and anyone suffering from imposter syndrome, to go for that role or promotion or to try out our industry.

Here’s what John Lambert, our Managing Director, has to say;

"Many of us experience imposter syndrome in our lives, however throughout my career I have often heard female colleagues say "I'd never get that job" or "I'm not experienced/qualified/skilled enough" yet then seen lower qualified, less experienced males placed into the role. Some of the best, most inspirational colleagues I've worked with in security are female. Thankfully the industry is improving with lots of EDI movements, but there is still more to be done.

It doesn't take much for leaders in the industry to encourage our female colleagues to put themselves forward, create opportunities for them to thrive, and build their confidence up to reduce the imposter syndrome effect."

Keep a look out for regular updates on how we’re doing and what we’ve been up to!

Bold Security Group are delighted to announce some more good news! We have secured a placement on the North of England Commercial Procurement Collaborative Security Services Framework for Lots 1 & 2.

Managing Director John Lambert MSyI AEPS said;

"I'm pleased to secure this framework placement, alongside three other frameworks recently. This one is particularly important to me personally, having started my security career in healthcare environments, and having been involved ever since. It is the most challenging sector for security officers to work in, with careful and experienced management required. We have supported larger providers for many years in acute and community hospitals, so the next stage for our growth is to secure our own contracts directly with the NHS. This framework, with national reach, is a great stepping stone for that growth."

Bold Security Group are pleased to announce our newly appointed membership with ACS Pacesetters!

The ACS Pacesetters are an independent organisation that promotes security companies that are SIA approved contractors who currently have a score within the top 15% of all accredited companies, this currently stands at a score of +105, which Bold comfortably surpassed putting us within the top 10% of all accredited companies. A testament to our commitment to provide the highest possible quality to our clients and the public alike.

Managing Director, John Lambert MSyI AEPS, comments:

“A nice way to start the working week, with this announcement. The result constitutes a 40% improvement in score from last year, recognition of the hard work from every member of the Bold Security Group team. Well done and thank you to all the Bold employees, front line through to management.

We set ourselves the target of top 15%, and have comfortably exceeded that. Next year the target is top 5%!

I’ve heard people say the ACS score doesn’t matter. I disagree. It covers every part of the business and to score high marks shows a commitment to your employees, customers and the industry. It’s a good benchmark for quality.”

A huge well done to the entire Bold team, from our frontline staff to our leadership team and everybody in-between, it has been a huge team effort and the results speak for themselves.
