Managing Director
Zulu-Alpha was established to meet a clear gap in the private client market for integrated, intelligence-led security advice.
Drawing on decades of experience across the military, the UK Intelligence Community, the nuclear sector and direct security support to ultra-high-net-worth families, Paul brings a rare blend of intelligence expertise and practical risk management having departed as the Dyson Family's Head of Security to establish Zulu-Alpha.
Paul personally leads each engagement, acting as a trusted security adviser to family offices, coordinating global specialists while ensuring security remains proportionate, coherent, and aligned with the client’s long-term objectives.
We work with private clients and family offices where confidentiality is fundamental.
For this reason, testimonials are shared anonymously and without operational detail.
