High-profile individuals, executives, celebrities and diplomats face a range of different risks in their daily lives, particularly while travelling.

That’s where a professional security team with trained close protection drivers comes in.
At Saepio Protection Group, we specialise in delivering a discreet, high-level mobile security service in London, Surrey and across the UK.
A close protection service is designed to protect clients in transit, ensuring a safe and smooth journey without compromising on privacy, comfort or time.
Your personal protection is important in an ever-unpredictable world.
Professional Close Protection Drivers
Close protection drivers are more than just chauffeurs; we are talking about a trained security professional with advanced driving skills and defensive driving techniques, as well as a detailed understanding of threat avoidance. When we transport VIPs across Central London or to business meetings in Surrey, or to unfamiliar areas anywhere in the UK, our personnel are equipped to assess potential risks and to respond swiftly to any immediate security concerns.
Each personal protection driver is vetted to a high industry standard and must maintain full SIA licensing. Our security team has trained in risk detection, in evasive manoeuvres, and in situational awareness to provide comprehensive mobile security for clients in the private, public and commercial sectors.
Saepio Protection Group also transports celebrities and sportspeople.
Close Protection Services While Travelling
Saepio Protection Group has a full suite of services, and uses close protection drivers to help clients who require added security while on the move.
Benefits to choosing our drivers for close protection transport include:
- Secure airport transfers from Heathrow, Gatwick and private airfields across London and Surrey as well as nationwide
- Escorting high net-worth individuals to their business engagements or to attend conferences, exhibitions and events
- Managing secure routes and back-up plans for unpredictable travel schedules when the potential for attack is high
- Ensuring vehicle and venue safety before arrival and during events, a personal protection service suited to musicians
- Collaboration with other security personnel and static security teams to ensure seamless protection from door to door
Our security team navigates complex environments discreetly, operating with close protection drivers individually or assisting with a much larger detail.
VIP and Executive Travel Protection
Some clients need more than just a point-to-point service.
For business executives and public figures, travel can involve multiple stops or unscheduled changes, and long periods of exposure to the public. Personal protection packages come designed to adapt to these situations. We always work closely with personal assistants, corporate teams and event organisers to understand the itinerary and to identify any potential vulnerabilities.
Close protection drivers ensure a visible yet non-intrusive presence, reassuring the client of their safety but without disrupting the flow of their day. From our discreet luxury vehicles to full security convoys, Saepio Protection Group will be able to tailor the scale of mobile protection to suit the context of the job.
Local, Regional and Nationwide Availability
Having the right understanding of the environment is crucial when it comes to personal protection. Our security team has extensive operational knowledge of London’s urban landscape, from high-traffic areas to high-risk zones, and is also familiar with the quieter but still security-relevant regions of Surrey.
And, of course, we have excellent nationwide credentials too.
We maintain constant contact with the relevant authorities, using a real-time intelligence plan to update routes, avoid congestion or demonstrations, and react instantly to developing situations. This level of focus allows us to provide an agile, responsive service that many other operators simply can’t match.
