Lee Long Xuan
Head of Operations
Describing myself is one of the toughest tasks to do, but it's interesting too to put it to words.
I always believe the human mind is amazing, be they positive or negative - makes us the person we are to the world.
Over 30 years of working experiences in Operations, Business & Development had gained me the knowledge and experience having to work with many mentors. One of the most memorable experiences I have in the industry are the days at Government Quarantine Facility (GQF) during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a frontliner, being decisive and having endurance are very crucial in supporting my counterparts. The entire exercise will only be successful when there are teamwork and trust.
Customers and employees are equally important. I strive to deliver the highest quality customer service without compromising my employees' needs. Good employees do build customer relationships. I believe an engaged employee is the backbone of excellent customer service which will lead to satisfied and loyal customers.
The power that motivates me to stay stronger is the love & support from my family. Having a good work life balance allows me to stay productive in work.

Leon Mei Yun
HR & Finance Manager
As an HR and Finance Manager with nearly seven years in the security industry, I have navigated a range of challenges that have strengthened my strategic approach. One significant challenge was managing high employee turnover, which impacted both morale and operational efficiency. To address this, I implemented targeted recruitment strategies and enhanced employee engagement initiatives, resulting in a 25% reduction in turnover over two years.
Additionally, balancing budget constraints with the need for effective training programs posed another challenge. By leveraging technology and developing in-house training modules, I ensured that employees received the necessary skills while staying within budget. My experience has equipped me with the ability to align HR strategies with financial objectives, driving both workforce satisfaction and organizational success.
