Good security is about more than what happens on site.

The way we support our people, contribute to communities, and reduce our environmental impact all influence the service we deliver every day.

That's why we've brought our Sustainability and Social Impact approach together under three focus areas: People, Community and Environment.

Over the coming months, we'll share some of the stories, initiatives, and outcomes behind each pillar.

Today we unveiled SkyGuard at the NZ Data Centre Leaders Summit and were blown away by the level of interest and conversations throughout the day.

One thing was clear from conversations throughout the day: organisations are facing the same challenges that SkyGuard was designed to solve.
- Guards provide a visible deterrent, but can't be everywhere.
- Patrols only provide snapshots in time.
- Fixed CCTV is expensive to install & difficult to relocate.
- Large sites create coverage gaps.

We're excited to see where SkyGuard takes us.

This year, we are proud to recognise John Edmundson as our Supreme Winner - Guard of the Year.

John consistently demonstrates exceptional professionalism, leadership, and commitment to service excellence. Whether managing challenging situations, building strong relationships within the community, or creating a safe and welcoming environment for those around him, he leads by example in everything he does.

One of the many qualities that sets John apart is his ability to remain calm and decisive under pressure. His leadership during a recent critical incident highlighted the professionalism, care, and composure that have earned the trust and respect of both clients and colleagues alike.

Beyond these moments, it is John's everyday commitment to making a difference that truly defines his impact. Through his proactive approach, dedication to others, and unwavering focus on keeping people safe, he embodies the very best of what Red Badge stands for.

Congratulations, John, on this well-deserved recognition. Thank you for the incredible contribution you make to our people, our clients, and our communities.

Creating a great event experience goes beyond what people see on the surface.

From helping guests navigate busy environments to making sure everyone feels safe and supported, it’s the care our teams show in the smaller moments that really matters.

Feedback like this means a lot to our people on the ground - we're about making sure everyone can enjoy the experience with confidence and support when they need it.

Today is International Security Officers' Day.

Celebrated on 24 July, the date represents something our people know all too well: security never stops. It's a profession that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, often behind the scenes, ensuring others can go about their day safely.

Today is about recognising the resilience, professionalism, and commitment of security officers everywhere, and especially the incredible people who wear the Red Badge uniform.

Whether they're protecting major events, patrolling communities, supporting businesses, welcoming visitors, responding to incidents, or simply providing reassurance when it's needed most, our officers make a difference every single day.

Security is often at its best when it's unnoticed, but the people behind it deserve to be seen.

To all of our security officers across Aotearoa, thank you for your professionalism, your dedication, and for showing up day after day to help keep people, places, and communities safe.

Congratulations to our very own Simon Mackereth on being named the winner of the Outstanding Young Security Professional award at the 2026 New Zealand OSPAs. πŸ‘

This award recognises young professionals who are making a significant impact on New Zealand's security industry, and there is no one more deserving.

Over the past five years, Simon has built an outstanding reputation for leading with integrity, developing great people, and delivering measurable results for our customers. From strengthening security operations and reducing incidents across major customer sites, to launching new services, improving staff retention, and helping develop training programmes that have positively impacted more than 400 security officers nationwide, Simon's influence reaches far beyond his day-to-day role.

What stands out most, though, is the way Simon leads. He backs his people, builds strong relationships with customers, embraces every challenge, and is always looking for ways to raise the standard of our industry.

Simon represents exactly what Red Badge is all about - professionalism, innovation, and a genuine commitment to keeping people and communities safer.

Congratulations, Simon. We're incredibly proud to have you on the team, and we can't wait to see what's next.

Three awards. One incredible achievement. Congratulations to Agnes Faafiti, our 2026 Culture Champion, Operations Person of the Year, and Supreme Winner!

Winning three awards in one night, including our highest individual honour, is a reflection of the impact Agnes has had across Red Badge.

As part of her nomination, one of the comments that stood out was:

"Agnes uplifts those around her, makes the workplace a better place to be, leads by example, and genuinely cares about both people and outcomes. What we love most is that none of this is done for recognition. It's simply who she is."

Whether she's supporting customers, strengthening her team, or stepping in wherever she's needed, Agnes consistently sets the standard through her actions.

Congratulations, Agnes. This recognition is incredibly well deserved.
