Simon brings extensive experience across the security profession and has played a key role in strengthening the ASC’s international engagement during his time as International Development Director. In this role, he helped develop relationships with organisations including the International Association of Professional Security Consultants (IAPSC) in the United States and the Professional Security & Safety Alliance (PSSA) in the UAE, helping to position the ASC and its members within the wider global security community.
Commenting on his appointment, Simon said:

I’m honoured to take on the role of Chair and look forward to working with the Board, our new COO and our members to continue developing the Association.”
As Chair, Simon will work with the Board and members to guide the organisation’s continued development, supporting professional standards, strengthening collaboration across the industry, and further raising the profile of independent security consultancy both in the UK and internationally.
