Day-to-day security guarding at York Racecourse is no small task.
York Racecourse have chosen local in a new deal with Eboracum. Eboracum will deliver upgraded security operations to protect the site, its buildings and assets along with keeping people safe.
This contract sees existing experienced and well-thought-of team members transferring to the Eboracum team, bringing over 15 years of industry experience. Technology will be implemented to assist team members in being able to do their job safely and effectively, creating deterrent to unwanted conduct or unauthorised access. The system will alert our on-site team members instantly of any unexpected movement and provide them with information which will help make a safe decision about what to do next. This will be supported by real-time reporting and analytics to ensure a proactive approach can be implemented and reviewed regularly. Eboracum’s services are just one of many layers of security which are already in place at the venue to protect the public , staff and assets.
Carl Nickson, Managing Director at Eboracum said " I am extremely proud that we are working directly with York Racecourse to help provide a secure environment. I am pleased that we are able to welcome new team members to the Eboracum team through TUPE transfer, bringing even more experience and expertise onboard."
Phil Atkinson, Head of Operations at York Racecourse, said “Our existing provider continued to provide a great service as they had done for many years, but we are aware of the forthcoming Protect Duty and we wanted to be sure that we were ready for it. We decided to review our security arrangements, and we were aware of Eboracum as they are based in York so invited them to tender. We found Carl and his team to be extremely professional, and willing to embrace new ways of working. For us having local support for our security team, made a big difference, and we are pleased to work with Eboracum to secure our site."
