Iain McCallister from MAN Commercial Protection with Darryl Eales of Solihull Moors FC
MAN Commercial Protection has signed a three-year deal with National League team Solihull Moors FC to provide security for all of its 23 home league games and cup competitions.
The deal will create thirty new part-time roles for stewards, as well as providing SIA-licensed response teams, CCTV control operators, supervisors and an event manager.
Kicking-off with the Birmingham City home friendly on July 16th for the Arthur Cup, the partnership will also explore how the two organisations can work together to raise money for the Solihull Moors Foundation.
Iain McCallister, CEO and founder of MAN Commercial Protection said: “Chairman Darryl Eales and I have known each other for some time and have started to forge closer ties through our joint involvement with the Solihull Chamber of Commerce. We got talking about next season’s security arrangements and how we would look after it, including some high-profile fixtures with big away followings. In short, the partnership made perfect sense.”
He continued: “We are keeping training local too, with the 30 new part-time stewards we’re recruiting set to complete their Stewarding NVQ Level 2 training at Solihull College.”
In addition to the security services, MAN Commercial Protection has agreed a three-year commercial deal with ‘the Moors’, becoming sponsor of the East Stand, which will be renamed ‘The MAN Commercial Protection Stand’ in time for the new season.
