An Introduction To ProFM Group
ProFM Group are a leader in the corporate services field, delivering industry-leading security, expert cleaning, energy switching solutions, and a wider suite of facilities management services. Born from past frustrations and based in the emerging Northern hub of Chorley, ProFM Group delivers bespoke solutions for some of the UK’s most in-demand services, all with a signature level of quality and professionalism that has seen us scale new heights in our sector.
Why I Founded ProFM Group
ProFM Group was actually the first business I set up. Originally started as Knight Security in conjunction with a business partner I’d met at St. Helens Technical College, it was a project that was kick-started from a negative experience. I’d struggled to find a security company that took pride in their work, that invested the same time and effort that I did into cultivating a professional image, and that offered their workforce the same opportunities I’d be afforded.
That sparked the initial idea. I knew I could do a better job by employing better people, investing in training and expertise, and – the bottom line – paying a better wage by charging more. And that’s exactly what I did.
From there, I bought out my original business partner and, in the year 2000, the first iteration of Churchill Security (which would, some 25 years later, become ProFM) was created. At that point, it was a small business, with an annual turnover of a few hundred thousand pounds, but I saw the vision for a nationwide scope and a truly UK-leading brand.
How ProFM Group Has Grown
Over the last 25 years, ProFM has grown significantly. Starting as a refined security provider, the brand and its people have evolved well beyond that. Our service expansion led to the recent rebrand to ProFM Group.
In early 2025, we transitioned from Churchill Support Services (formerly Churchill Security) to the multi-disciplinary, expert-led company you see today. This move was driven largely by our goal to expand into the broader facilities management market.
Our strength lies in our people and our tailored service approach. Every project is different, and we believe services should reflect that—ditching the one-size-fits-all model and focusing on truly understanding each client.
This philosophy has brought wider recognition. ProFM has been the UK’s #1 security company for the past five years. Our cleaning services stem from medical-grade standards, now offered across industries. As we’ve grown, so have our people.
From apprentices rising to leadership to strategic hires shaping our future, ProFM’s growth is driven by people and purpose.
Where The Future Lies For ProFM Group
With a strong leadership team and a broader name reflecting its expanded services, ProFM is set to continue the impressive growth we’ve seen—evident through partnerships with major brands and multinational clients.
Looking ahead, we’re positioning as an acquisitive business, aiming to become a comprehensive, one-stop shop for outsourced facilities management. That strategy is already driving growth, with our second acquisition in two years taking place in early 2025.
We’re also focused on maintaining the stellar reputation ProFM has built. As the UK’s #1 security company, our continued accreditations only reinforce our standing. I’m proud to have sparked the journey that brought us here.
