Philip Grindell MSc CSyP – CEO & Founder

 Behavioural Threat Assessment & Crisis Management for Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individuals and Family Offices

When Jo Cox MP was murdered in 2016, Philip was the Scotland Yard Detective Inspector chosen to lead Parliament’s response. Not because he had the biggest team, but because when MPs’ lives hang in the balance, you need someone who spots what others miss.

After 30 years at the Met, including three years with British Intelligence, Philip had kept the Royal Family and Government ministers alive at high-risk events. Leading the team protecting MPs after Jo’s murder, he prevented the next assassination—identifying a planned attack on a serving MP and police officer in 2017.

Philip founded Defuse Global to solve problems traditional security firms can’t touch. Not bodyguards or panic buttons—but specialist advice, consultancy, and investigative work that stops stalkers, ends harassment campaigns, and neutralises threats to your physical safety, mental wellbeing, and reputation before they destroy what you’ve built.

Working with clients globally, Philip doesn’t manage crises—he prevents them. His expertise led to the bestselling book “Personal Threat Management,” now required reading in the industry. Clients describe working with him as transformational. The hypervigilance stops. They sleep again.
