Gender Pay Gap Statement
Amberstone Security is a privately owned company and is a provider of security services in the UK, Ireland, and Europe.
Amberstone Security is a privately owned company and is a provider of security services in the UK, Ireland, and Europe.
As of March 2023 Amberstone has over 200 clients, and over 4,500 staff. Amberstone Security has a pre-eminent position in the security market and takes great pride in being an agile high-growth business, creating an exciting and equitable place to work.
At Amberstone Security, everyone is paid for the role they have in the team and their performance in that role. Some external factors can affect employee remuneration. This is predominately in the provision of human security resources and wholly dependent on the client colleagues are deployed to. These factors include customer and site-based pay variances, previous TUPE entitlements and, on some contracts, national living wage values.
Amberstone Security is an Equal Pay Employer – men and women performing equal work receive equal pay. Amberstone Security does have a Gender Pay Gap – males are more highly represented in the upper quartiles of pay in comparison to females. This is purely based on the security market being a male-dominated environment and the senior leaders being male.
We will continually explore how we can close any gaps found within our organisation to create more gender balance, given that we have more men than women. We practice equal opportunities, and we firmly believe in appointing the best candidate into a role, regardless of their gender or any other factors covered by the Equality Act.

Bonus payments include bonus and commission schemes. 2.75% of males (50 of 1816
males) and 10.06% of females (18 of 179 females) were paid bonuses.
The range of bonuses vary, due to the inclusion of sales commission paid to the male dominated sales team and bonuses paid to business leaders. There is equal pay within the leadership and sales team, with all members paid in-line with commission structures paying high performers. Our bonus incentives are based on performance and do not favour
gender.
Females are proportionately more likely to be paid a bonus than men.
Median bonus for males was £625.00
Median bonus for females was £500.00
Mean bonus for males was £1,808.00
Mean bonus for females was £1,463.89
Mean bonus gap is 19.03% in favour of males
