£6m Securicor investment biggest in Ireland
A £6 million Securicor Cash Services Supercentre - the biggest commercial security investment in Ireland to date – has been opened in Mallusk in north Belfast.
The 5.6 acre facility will initially accommodate 300 staff who will provide cash management services for the company’s 300 regional customers.
John Campbell, Project Manager, said: “This project represents a significant investment in our Ireland operation and is designed to provide a high-quality working environment for our staff and improved customer service. The construction of a Supercentre with the flexibility to offer a wide range of services, will further aid Securicor Cash Services to lead the cash solutions market."
In addition, the centre, which co-locates Securicor Cash Services and Cash Centres, also provides a Northern Ireland head office for Securicor Security.
The design is based on the first Supercentre, which was opened in Manchester in early 2002. The facility incorporates the following latest security measures: a central control room at the heart of the branch, 220 CCTV cameras throughout the site, anti-helicopter wire, computerised vehicle and personnel access, a fingerprint controlled access system to secure areas and perimeter security.
