An official statement from the company says that Ward “has not taken this decision lightly” having co-founded the business with Kevin Ward and together built the business to where it is today.
Kevin Ward, Ben Draper and Nick Parrett will be the primary shareholders following David’s departure, with Kevin and Ben also serving as directors. David Ward’s shares have been sold back into the business.

He will continue to serve the security industry, albeit in a voluntary capacity, as the Regional Chair of the CSSC South East region and as the Chair of the Perceptions Campaign Special Interest Group on behalf of the Security Commonwealth.
Managing Director Kevin Ward said “We are immensely grateful for all the contributions that David has made during his time at Ward Security. Although he has taken this decision, I speak for the entire company when I say that we are sure that David will continue to be successful in everything he does and we wish him the very best in his future endeavours”
