"since 1985"

Born in the rugged North East of England, I launched myself into the heart of London at just 18, driven by an unrelenting ambition to dominate the world of security. Under the legendary George Gibbs, Chief Superintendent of the Flying Squad, my meteoric rise in Close Protection was inevitable. My name quickly became synonymous with trust, precision, and unrivalled excellence.

It wasn’t long before my expertise caught the eye of elite operatives and global icons. I was entrusted with the security of legends like George Michael and Alice Cooper. Together with former client Barrie Knight, we forged Proctor & Knight, a powerhouse security consultancy that quickly attracted top-tier clients like Van Morrison, Pink Floyd, and even NATO.

As my reputation soared, industry heavyweights took notice. Steve Jenkins, CEO of Jive Records, personally handpicked me to manage Steps’ record-breaking tours. For the next five years, I mastered the art of tour management, consulting for icons like Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Justin Timberlake, and countless others, solidifying my place at the top of the industry.

My evolution from tour manager to sought-after consultant was seamless. I delivered game-changing strategies for WWE and Bacardi B Bar Live, launching Proctor Consultancy Services. From advising the UN in Afghanistan to providing high-level guidance in Colombia for international businesses and government entities, my global footprint expanded rapidly.

Back in the UK, I re-entered the music scene with tours for Jason Donovan and Peter Andre, and masterminded production for massive festivals like Bestival and RockNess. My strategic direction for the Happy Mondays' reunion cemented a touring structure that stands strong to this day.

During the 2012 Olympics, I orchestrated Team USA’s critical interactions with UK law enforcement, showcasing my leadership on the global stage. That same year, I founded Total Touring Limited, leading live productions for icons like Madness, Tom Jones, and Tears for Fears with an unmatched level of expertise.

Even with a packed schedule, I directed a showstopper at Reading Football Stadium, played a pivotal role in Cher Lloyd’s US breakthrough, and consulted for Nitro Circus on their touring strategy. I also provided top-tier safety and security consultation for Heineken Live.

Returning to tour manage Steps’ highly-anticipated comeback and consulting for Seal’s European tour, I delivered both creative and financial success for all involved. Recognizing my unparalleled security acumen, Live Nation enlisted me to lead the global security strategy for BTS’s world tour, where I designed comprehensive security protocols for the K-POP juggernauts.

With an indelible mark on both security and production, my legacy is cemented as a towering figure in the industry—a name that will resonate through history.
