We Love Our Melbourne Community
Helping Melbourne’s At-Risk Youth Through Enrichment Programs
Not only do we work hard to keep our clients safe, but we also look forward to being a positive force in the Melbourne community.
We are a social enterprise. This means that through our business, we are deeply committed to helping create inclusive growth by providing opportunities to underserved and underprivileged communities.
What is a Social Enterprise?
According to Social Traders, a Social Enterprise is an innovative breed of businesses that exist to create a fairer and more sustainable world. Social Enterprises are businesses like any other, but they exist to make the world better. That could be creating jobs for the most marginalised, providing services or protecting the environment.
Social Enterprises must be able to do three things:
- Have a defined primary social, cultural or environmental purpose consistent with a public or community benefit, and
- Derive a substantial portion of their income from trade, and
- Invest efforts and resources into their purpose such that public/community benefit outweighs private benefit.
As a Social Enterprise, we aim to be game changers in the security industry, combining our passion for security and protection with our desire for better, more inclusive growth for all.
What is the Social Traders Certification?
To reiterate our pledge to inclusion and creating a positive impact, we have undergone the rigorous assessment needed to obtain the Social Traders Certification. Social Traders assessed our viable business operation and impact model based on the FASES(Finding Australia’s Social Enterprise Sector 2016) definition of a Social Enterprise.
The Social Traders Certification ensures that we have met their standards and qualifications of
- Have a defined primary social, cultural or environmental purpose consistent with a public or community benefit, and
- Derive a substantial portion of their income from trade, and
- Invest efforts and resources into their purpose such that public/community benefit outweighs private benefit.
A Social Traders certification also ensures that Eagle Eye Guards have access to Social Traders as an intermediary dedicated to connecting businesses and governments with Social Enterprises. They use their unrivalled sector intelligence to disrupt business as usual and make buying from Social Enterprises the norm. In addition, the Social Traders Certification gives customers peace of mind knowing that a Social Enterprise has been independently audited and verified by a trustworthy body.

What Our clients are saying
Billy Hyde Management
Billy Hyde Music has used Eagle Eye Guards on many occasions for retail security for our business. The team are always punctual, professional and easy to deal with. We find the whole team polite, friendly and support the professional customer experience that is so important to our business.
Danny Dale (Private Function)
We had an excellent experience hiring a security guard for our daughter’s 18th birthday party at home. John was regularly in touch from the outset and our security guard, Mark, called beforehand to go through the setup and provide some very helpful advice on hosting a party for teenagers. As a result the party went off without a hitch with no stress for the parents!
Eagle Eyes Guards’ knowledge, experience and friendly approach made all the difference.
Craig Peterson (Local Patron)
I am a local that attends the Westernport Hotel and have experienced Eagle Eye Guards to be one of the most professional, kind, socially aware and offer very genuine customer service. They don’t use an aggressive approach and make you feel very safe as a patron. Such a friendly team that puts in the extra effort to smile and interact if appropriate. Very Highly recommended.
(Lygon Business Owner)
Highly recommend Eagle Eye Guards, I have employed their services for a door security worker at my small business-a bar on Lygon Street in Brunswick East. John, the owner is professional, caring, responsive & friendly. He is incredibly easy to communicate with & always keeps me up to date if there are changes to the workers. He has also checked in during & after the shifts to ensure everything went well. He responds very quickly to messages & even prioritised my business’s needs at 00:30 on a Sunday morning whilst dealing with an urgent family matter. The rates are extremely reasonable & John is very open to feedback & changing things if needed. I honestly feel he totally understands why we need a security guard & as a result my customers, colleagues & myself feel much safer. Thank you very much John for helping me focus on the running of my business when we’re open.
Management (Vogue Reception Centre)
Eagle Eye Fuards are a professional organisation that we employ to provide security services at our venue. We have found all guards to be reliable, prompt, and of a happy character. Their professionalism is outstanding. They actually care as they understand they are ambassadors of the business that work for. We have found all guests commenting on how polite and professional they are. Eagle Eye Guards = Highly Recommended!
