| As Human Resources Director, Valerie Dale will be responsible for the overall HR Strategy for the Company |
Securitas has announced the appointment of a new Human Resources Director who will support the business to achieve its strategy of growth and commercial success.
Valerie Dale joins the security firm from G4S Secure Solutions (UK) Ltd and brings over 20 years’ HR experience to the role, 14 of which have been in HR management positions. A Fellow Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development, Valerie will be responsible for the overall HR Strategy for the Company and has been in the security industry for over 6 years, during which time she has helped to develop industry standards.
Brian Riis Nielsen, Country President at Securitas, said: “We’re really pleased to have Valerie on board. She will be a key service provider and, along with her team, will consistently support the business to attract, retain, motivate and develop our people to achieve their maximum potential and provide an exceptional service to our customers.”
She said: “Securitas has a very well respected reputation in the industry and the appointment of Brian, following his success in Denmark, means we have a clear security solutions strategy and a structure that enables autonomy, accountability and innovation for our employees to deliver that strategy. We’re hoping to expand on the already well-established training and development programmes and ensure an overall HR strategy that is in tune with the business’s philosophy. We’ll also continue to work closely with industry bodies such as the BSIA, Skills for Security and SIA.”
Valerie is the Vice Chair of the BSIA HR Committee, a Non-Exec Board Director at Skills for Security and the Chair for their Guarding Sector Consultation Group.
“I’m really looking forward to being a key part of making the company successful through its people, systems and processes and there are lots of initiatives in all three areas that we can implement in order to achieve this.”
