Global Consortium Group
We've led from the frontline – now we've got your back.
We are former chiefs, commanders and commissioners with over 1,100 years of combined frontline experience, now advising police services, government departments and public-safety duty-holders.
A consortium, not a consultancy
We are a global consortium of public safety experts — not a traditional consultancy.
Global Consortium Group (GCG) brings together former leaders from policing, emergency services, counter-terrorism and public safety operations around the world. Members are independent practitioners, not employees: we hold consistency by contract, induction and review, and we put the person who has done the job in front of the client rather than a generalist team.
We are practitioners first. A member who advises on public order command has run public order command; a member who advises on a counter-terrorism investigation has led one. Client engagements are confidential by default. References are available in direct conversation.
- 1,100+ years of frontline and strategic experience
- 49 partners, directors and consortium members
- 4 practice domains
- 5 delivery arms
What we do
Four practice domains, delivered by people who have done the work themselves.
-
Technology & Innovation
We sit between public safety organisations and technology suppliers: assessing what a product actually does, and advising on procurement and rollout so a deployment does not fail in service.
Explore the domain -
People & Performance
Leadership development, prevention-first wellbeing, gender-responsive practice and recruitment — designed for the public safety domain.
Explore the domain -
Safety, Security & Resilience
Readiness, command, protective security and programme assurance for organisations operating in complex, high-consequence environments.
