What is the best thing about working in security?
We have a varied scope of works giving us a variety of challenges throughout the industry.
Is third party accreditation beneficial to your company?

Do you think there is a skills shortage in the industry? Any trouble recruiting?
Yes we have experienced the difficulty in getting skilled engineers; we currently have three apprentices in the hope to fill this gap.
