PROFILE ON: Hartley Atkins
Mr. Atkins was born on June 28, 1951, in the parish of Kingston, Jamaica, W.I. He attended St. Andrew Technical High School, after which he received private tutoring at the tertiary level under the direction of Professor C. C. McArthur Ireland. He is a member of the Kiwanis Club of Downtown Kingston. He has been married for over twenty five years, and has two children. Mr. Atkins doubles as music producer Shylock, a songwriter, and a writer of award-winning poetry, in his leisure time.
Mr. Atkins is a Business and Security Consultant with over thirty years of experience. He deals with the Setting-up and Operation of Security Companies, including Trouble-Shooting, Training, Control Policies, Legal Aspects and the general day-to-day activities. He was part of the committee that upgraded and reviewed the Security Guard Training Manual, the training manual recognized by the Jamaica Society of Industrial Security.
His security career started out in accounts auditing, and being the son of a Police Officer, it would appear that his crime-fighting genes propelled him to become a Security Expert today.
His qualifications include:
Financial Accounting Diplomas from the Royal Society of Arts and from the Association of Accounting Technicians (A.A.T.). He also holds a Cost Accounting Diploma from the Jamaica Industrial Development Commission (J.I.D.C.) in conjunction with the International Labor Organization (I.L.O.) and a certificate from the American Society for Industrial Security (Jamaica Chapter).
His work experience covers:
Internal Auditor at the Gleaner Company Limited; Cost Accountant at Electrical Manufacturing (Jamaica) Limited; Auditor Manager at L.E. Brown & Company (Chartered Secretaries and Accountants).
He was the Company Secretary, Financial Controller, Acting General Manager and Consultant at Protection & Security Limited (spanning over twenty one years). He is former Chairman of Region Security & Investigative Services Limited.
In 1995, Mr. Atkins was instrumental in negotiating the joint venture between Wackenhut International Inc. (from the United States of America, one of the largest and most reputable security companies in the world) and Protection & Security Limited (Jamaica), with both companies forming a third company, Wackenhut (Jamaica) Limited. Needless to say, before Mr. Atkins could act in the capacity as Consultant to the United States company, aspiring to bid for the security contract for the United States Embassy (Jamaica), an extensive background check was carried out on him by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (F.B.I.).
The new company formed, subsequently won the bid for the contract for the United States Embassy (Jamaica) for five years initially, with Mr. Atkins in the role of Consultant to Wackenhut (Jamaica) Limited for the first two years of the contract.
Mr. Atkins is currently a Consultant and the Chairman of Bulwark Security Systems Limited (Jamaica).
