About us

The VPS Group has 12 business divisions offering a range of security, management and maintenance services for vacant property, remote sites, construction and infrastructure projects, highways and selectively for occupied properties. As the UK and European market leaders in specialist property and site management, we look after approximately 50,000 units at any one time, with a value of over £5 billion, covering both commercial and residential sectors. The top FTSE insurance, security and property companies select VPS to take care of their vacant property requirements, and we also partner 850 social housing providers, helping to turn 20,000 vacant properties into homes for new tenants every year. With a network of over 40 Service Centres throughout the UK and Ireland our speed of response and expertise in security means that from the minute a property becomes vacant, we are available to clear it, protect it, monitor it and prepare it for reoccupancy. Starting with an initial risk assessment devised in conjunction with the key insurers VPS offer a range of security solutions including guarding, inspections, remotely monitored alarms, CCTV towers, protection by occupation through VPS guardians, and property preparation services from clearing and cleaning to ongoing maintenance such as pest control, lock changes and glazing services. This combined expertise helps protect against unauthorised access and a variety of threats such as arson, theft and squatting, whilst helping to ensure the property complies with insurance requirements. Our ongoing commitment to providing state of the art products developed by our in-house Innovation Centre, and our emphasis on outstanding customer service provides our customers with peace of mind that their property or site is safe and secure - helping to retain its value for as long as it is entrusted in our hands.

    The benefits of ‘𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲’ business meetings were clearly seen this week as members from our Group Chief of Staff and Group Commercial teams gathered at the ‘Evander’ offices for two days of open discussions focused on collaboration and convergence.   By openly asking ourselves ‘why’, we unlock so many good conversations, that drive improvements on how we work, making things more efficient and effective. These sessions also offer the chance to hear from subject matter experts, clarify our understanding, break down barriers and gain a greater level of visibility of how we are working towards shared goals and objectives.   The key takeaway from the session …. “𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻”.   #thevpsgroup #communication #facetoface #collaboration

This capability has enabled us to deploy police response swiftly, preventing numerous break-ins and squatting incidents, leading to on-site arrests.

    Members of The VPS Group, Chief of Staff Team recently set to work on their annual volunteering day at Thornage Hall – a residential and day care centre for young adults with special educational needs, in North Norfolk. Giving back is part of our ‘VPS Makes a Difference’ initiative and this year the team were tasked with building marquees and preparing the event space for the Thornage Hall Family & Community Open Day, whilst also learning about bee keeping, animal care and chatting to the young adults about their experiences of living at and attending Thornage Hall. This is the third year that the team have supported Thornage Hall and Les Rushworth, Group Head of Agile, Test and Power Platforms said ‘it’s always a fantastic day. The CoS Team get stuck in and every job we can do, means that the Thornage Hall staff can busy themselves supporting the young people who are there to learn and develop their skills. There is always a lot of laughter during the day and it always feels great to be giving back and making a difference, as well as leaving tech behind for the day’. A great job giving back … #VPSGroup #VPSMakesADifference #ESG #Givingback #Volunteering
