Ian Surtees, Vertas Group Limited’s CEO, said:

“We are thrilled to be able to further grow our security services in the region. Oakpark has years’ of experience in managing the security for a range of clients and will bring a wealth of knowledge to the Vertas Group. This new arrangement will put us on the front foot when bidding for upcoming security contracts; with a bespoke offer suited to the client’s requirements and budget. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome all of Oakpark’s staff and clients to the Vertas Group; we look forward to meeting and working with you over the coming weeks and months.”
