Our Operations at a Glance
Security Subcontracting You Can Rely On
Security companies, facilities providers and contractors sometimes need extra cover at short notice: holiday and sickness gaps, a sudden increase in demand or a new contract starting before recruitment catches up. Eagle Security Protection supplies SIA-licensed, BS7858-vetted officers as a subcontracted partner, so you can keep your client relationship intact without cutting corners on compliance.
As an SIA Approved Contractor Scheme company, we take on the vetting, licensing and day-to-day compliance for every officer we supply, giving you one accountable, audit-ready partner rather than an unverified third party. Female security officers are available where required, and client and site information is handled in confidence throughout.
Subcontract Cover, Built Around Your Contract
Different subcontract arrangements for different situations, all delivered to the same compliance standard.
Urgent Cover
Short-Notice Shift Cover
When holiday, sickness or a sudden spike in demand leaves a shift uncovered, we can mobilise SIA-licensed, BS7858-vetted officers quickly so your client never notices a gap in service.
Ongoing Contracts
Temporary & Long-Term Subcontract Support
Whether you need cover while you recruit for a new contract or a team of officers for an extended assignment, we provide consistent, compliant cover for as long as your contract requires it.
Brand-Matched Delivery
White-Label Subcontracting
Where suitable, we can provide agreed white-label subcontracting support, so officers represent your brand to your client while we handle the vetting, licensing and compliance behind the scenes.
For Security Providers

Avoid the Risks of Non-Compliant Security Suppliers
Choosing the lowest-cost security supplier can create serious risks for your business, your client relationships and your reputation. Unrealistically low hourly rates may indicate poor vetting, weak supervision, payroll issues or non-compliance with industry standards.
For security companies and facilities providers, the risk is not only poor service delivery. If a subcontracted supplier fails to meet legal, licensing or operational requirements, your brand and your client contract may also be affected.
As an SIA-approved security contractor, Eagle Security Protection provides compliant subcontract security support with SIA-licensed officers, BS 7858 vetting and professional operational standards. This helps you protect your client relationship while maintaining reliable cover across Birmingham and the West Midlands.
How Subcontract Cover Works
A straightforward four-step process from your first enquiry to officers on site.
Enquiry
Call or submit a cover request. Our team asks about your contract, site and the shifts or officers you need covering.
Instruction
We confirm subcontract instructions covering site access, reporting lines and your client's specific compliance requirements.
Mobilisation
SIA-licensed, BS7858-vetted officers are mobilised to your site, matched to your contract's risk profile and timescale.
Handover
You receive shift reports and a direct point of contact for the life of the subcontract arrangement, protecting your client relationship.
SIA ACS Accreditation
Eagle Security Protection is an SIA Approved Contractor Scheme company, the recognised UK benchmark for security company quality and compliance, so every subcontracted officer already meets that standard.
BS 7858 Vetting
Every officer supplied under a subcontract arrangement is BS7858 vetted and SIA licensed, helping you maintain your own compliance obligations without added risk.
ISO 9001, 14001 & 45001

Our company needed a security guard due to roller shutter breakdown. Never used Eagle Security before, rang them, spoke to a lovely lady, within the hour I had a guard outside our premises. Brilliant service, great job, will definitely use again.
