Marshall will lead the entire Gallagher Security business in these regions, as well as being a member of the global executive team to help develop and drive strategy.

Previous experience

The new Vice President brings 25 years of experience to the role with his background in the electronic security industry.

Prior to coming to Gallagher Security, Marshall worked for 18 years at HID Global where he was most recently Head of Europe.

“Building relationships and fostering collaboration is key”

“Gallagher has built a great brand within the industry and it’s exciting to be part of a company where I can continue to make an impact.”

He concluded: “I am very much focused on driving both regional team success and supporting the wider global Gallagher team, championing strategic initiatives, enhancing operational efficiency, supporting company culture and fostering talent by mentoring and sharing knowledge.”

Mark Junge, Chief Executive, Gallagher Security said: “It’s an exciting time for Gallagher globally and we are thrilled to appoint a leader of Spencer’s calibre to our global executive team.

“By combining our products with the unique skills of our people, we’re unlocking greater value for our customers.

“We’re on a pathway of transformation to best serve them in the most effective and profitable ways.”

He continued: “The security industry should be known not just for its protecting and securing, but for our expanded superpower: Making it easier for organisations to solve the problems that cost them time and money.”

Communication and transparency

As an experienced leader, Marshall says open communication and transparency are pivotal to a team’s success: “You must be able to trust your team and therefore empowerment is fundamental to a well-functioning team.

“I like to lead by example, by rolling up my sleeves and getting involved with the team which forges cohesiveness.”
