Celebrating Security Professionals: Insights from ONYX Specialist Services

To mark International Security Officers’ Day, we sat down with our MD, Adam Shorter, to discuss the importance of security professionals in the events industry.

Adam emphasised the crucial role of security officers in creating safe and enjoyable experiences for everyone involved in an event.
Adam: “Security is often an unseen hero in the events industry. Their dedication to safety and security creates an environment where attendees, staff, and artists can thrive. Without them, the magic of an event simply wouldn’t happen.”

What are the biggest challenges facing security professionals today?
Adam: “Balancing the need for heightened security with creating a welcoming atmosphere is a constant challenge. Our security teams excel at finding that delicate balance.”

How do you see the role of security evolving in the events industry?
Adam: “Technology is rapidly changing the security landscape. We’re investing in innovative solutions like HALO to stay ahead of emerging threats. But at the heart of it all are our people. Their ability to adapt, learn, and anticipate risks is essential for future success.”

What message do you have for our security team on International Security Officers’ Day?
Adam: “Your hard work and dedication don’t go unnoticed. You are the foundation of our success. Thank you for your commitment to safety and for creating unforgettable experiences for our clients and their attendees.”

Let’s take a moment to thank all security officers for their hard work and dedication.
