Salterton: Building Capability Where It Matters Most

Founded by Ian Tyers, a former senior police officer with extensive international experience, Salterton was established to address a clear gap in the market: the need for practitioner-led consultancy that combines operational credibility with strategic insight. From our earliest engagements in the British Overseas Territories to our growing international portfolio, we have consistently delivered results for clients facing complex policing, governance, and public safety challenges.
