Episode 23 of the Security Matters Podcast contains an exclusive exit interview with Rick Mounfield CSyP FSyI, who recently departed the CEO’s role at The Security Institute after a five-year tenure to join the Optimal Risk Group as a director of the business. In conversation with Brian, Rick looks back on his time at the Institute and focuses on several key areas, among them the ongoing drive for Chartered status, Continuing Professional Development and the skills that will be demanded of the security manager of tomorrow.
In addition, Brian chats with Rob Williams (technical and training manager at Gate Safe, the charity that’s wholly committed to promoting an improved understanding of the legislation and standards pertaining to automated gates). Rob highlights the Gate Safe Aware training programme and reviews the process of security and fire safety system installers extending their services to the automated gates sector.
There’s also a comprehensive appraisal of several major news stories impacting the sector. Our round-up includes key detail on the latest British Security Industry Association-orchestrated campaign entitled ‘People, Property, Places: Professionally Protected’ and the launch of a new Skills Board masterminded by the Security Industry Authority and the City Security Council.
