Celebrating Global Excellence in Skills Development: Gareth Davies Awarded City & Guilds Membership

Cultivating a Culture of Belonging

At G4S, our Culture and Belonging Policy is built on the commitment to provide an environment where all people can flourish and grow. Central to this is our investment in skills-based learning pathways that break down barriers and provide real career opportunities for every employee.

Recognising a Champion of Change

This award recognises Gareth’s global work in shifting our safety culture from compliance to meaningful behavioural change. By distilling complex concepts like Root Cause Analysis into accessible tools for our operators, Gareth has helped the business reduce fatalities in high-risk areas. City & Guilds recognises the value of leaders like Gareth who are passionate about aligning training with real-world demand and facilitating social mobility through vocational excellence.

A Gold Standard in Training

Gareth’s achievement follows in the footsteps of our Next Level Leadership (NLL) programme, which was awarded the Princess Royal Training Award in 2024. This award, also part of the City & Guilds of London Institute, recognised G4S for setting the "gold standard" in training and development. For over ten years, the NLL programme has transformed how we develop leaders - from embedding health and safety to fostering culture and belonging across our global organisation.

Building Pathways for the Future

These accolades are more than just awards; they are a testament to our commitment to:

• Providing real skills development that helps our people perform to their full potential.
• Creating critical career pathways for colleagues who may not have previously thought a career was possible.
• Benefiting the wider community by giving our individuals skills that they carry with them for life.

Please join us in congratulating Gareth on this exceptional achievement as we continue to invest in the talent and safety of our global team.
