Newcastle cyber security firm seals office relocation deal and further growth

Cyber security firm Security Risk Management Ltd (SRM) is expanding its position in the local tech sector with new premises at the Airport Freight Village near Newcastle International Airport.

The security firm’s new commercial base provides additional space to support growth plans over the next two years.

In the business’s first month at the Airport Freightway, SRM succeeded in winning 12 new contracts from national and international clients, who have a combined turnover in excess of £1bn.

SRM’s chief executive officer, Tom Fairfax, said: “Expansion was essential to provide the team with both space and facilities to grow our business throughout the UK.

“Being just minutes from Newcastle International Airport enables our consultants to travel around the country with ease to meet the needs of our growing client roster.

“We are fortunate to be joining a number of other tech businesses at the Airport Freightway, which is fast developing a reputation as a Cyber Hub, and we hope that we can collaborate more closely in the future.”

Security Risk Management, which offers information security services, such as incident response, vulnerability testing and payment card industry compliance, has been based in the Newcastle area for nearly two decades.
