Dylan Hartley, former England Rugby Captain, has joined Assist Security Group as a Non-Executive Director and Performance Lead.

Dylan earned 97 England caps in his career, making him the most-capped England hooker ever. He also made over 250 appearances for Northampton Saints.

He will work in the ASG Protect part of the business, whose clients include Arbor, London's new sustainable workspace on the South Bank, Bonhams auction house, the London Eye observation wheel, and the Londoner Hotel. 

Troy Hewitt, CEO of ASG said: "Dylan is working with Jonathan Thomas, a partner at ASG Protect and a former Royal Marine; Jonathan’s military background and understanding of high-pressure environments complement Dylan's elite sports experience, creating a powerful combination of skills and knowledge.

"This initiative will drive innovation and excellence in security management and training. Security teams face a range of complex and demanding security challenges, requiring a proactive, adaptable and resilient approach. By leveraging new perspectives and experiences from sports, the military and commerce, we aim to set new benchmarks in the industry for effective security to protect people, physical assets and brands."

Dylan Hartley said: “I am delighted to join ASG and contribute to the mission of providing a new standard in security protection performance. I believe that the principles of elite performance can significantly help the security industry. I look forward to working with the talented team at ASG to deliver exceptional results for security service users."
