Port Facility Security Officers
Trusted Security for the Freeport Zone
Port Facility Security Officers (PFSO’s)
At Ne Security, we are proud to provide fully qualified and experienced Port Facility Security Officers (PFSOs) to support operations within the Freeport Zone in the North East of England. Our officers play a vital role in ensuring compliance with the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, helping to maintain a secure, efficient, and resilient maritime environment.
Freeports present unique opportunities for trade and investment — but they also demand a high standard of security management. Our PFSOs are trained to meet those demands, delivering expert oversight of port facility security plans, risk assessments, incident response, and liaison with port users and regulatory bodies.
What Our PFSOs Provide:
- ISPS Code Compliance – Oversight and implementation of port facility security measures in line with international regulations
- Threat and Risk Assessments – Identifying and mitigating potential security vulnerabilities
- Access Control Management – Ensuring only authorised personnel, vehicles, and cargo enter secure areas
- Incident Coordination – Leading the response to security alerts, breaches, and emergency situations
- Training and Drills – Organising regular security exercises to maintain readiness and compliance
- Liaison with Authorities – Acting as the key contact with the Department for Transport (DfT), Border Force, HMRC, and port stakeholders
Our team understands the complex and evolving security needs of modern port operations, particularly within the Freeport framework. With our support, operators in the North East can focus on trade and logistics, knowing that their port security is in capable, compliant hands.
