Welcome to Seagal Investigations Group - Professional Private Investigator Franchise Licensing, offering nationwide positions as a licensed agent for Seagal Investigations Ltd. Run your own Private Investigation Agency and reap the rewards of an exciting and challenging career

Starting your own Private Investigation Agency could be one the best decisions of your life, to become a Professional Private Investigator in an industry that continues to utilise new and exciting techniques, tools and resources in order to establish the facts on behalf of commercial, corporate, legal and private clients. The demand for Private Investigators is evident, though ensuring that new investigators entering into the industry are fully conversant has been until now, somewhat of a challenge.

You will learn everything there is to know about the industry and how you can make it a successful and profitable business with a bit of effort, dedication and constant support from a team of professional private investigators. You will become part of a growing organisation, rich in support and marketing techniques that will give you a winning start.

Today’s Private Investigators rely on far more than a notepad, pen and magnifying glass to conduct their enquiries. New and exciting equipment, techniques, resources and training is available in order to fulfil the pressing demands to determine the truth, gather evidence and act on behalf of private, commercial and legal clients, not to mention many other tasks that a private investigator may be required to carry out, such as Process Serving, Surveillance, Tracing and a lot more.



So, it’s hardly surprising then that at first glance you may feel put off about setting up your own private investigation agency, conscious of the fact that there are many rules, regulations and laws to adhere to. Some choose to venture down the freelance investigator route, others attempt to set up alone but realise they soon don’t have the business skills or marketing abilities to get ahead of their competitors, or they fall fowl of the law for operating, whether intentionally or not, in an unprofessional or illegal manner, giving professional private investigators potentially a bad rep.

This is where we can make a big difference. If you have the aptitude and the attitude to be successful we will provide everything you need to join our successful team as a private investigator and develop your own profitable private investigation agency operating under the license of Seagal Investigations Group.

Featured Questions


How much can I earn?

Earn upto £4,000 per month

Private Investigators enjoy probably one of the most rewarding careers there are, with low overheads and unlimited client potential the profit ratio is extremely favorable

For example; most of the work you will carry out will rely entirely on your skills, knowledge and resources, you may use your vehicle to get from A to B and of course a small amount of office stationary and maybe some telephone call costs. With the average hourly rate being around £30 - 50 per hour you can see how profit rich your assignments will become.

Because you will be receiving support and guidance all the way from the moment you join us we will ensure you get off to a good start. You will be expected to earn £2,000 per month minimum in your first few months, once you have got the hang of it and you're kited out with everything you need you can expect to earn £4,000 plus per month.

 

Do I need to have qualifications?

Ensuring you get the best possible start begins here. You will undergo a BTEC Level 3 distance learning course in Advanced Private Investigation. This will be provided by the Academy of professional Investigation (API) and on successful completion it will entitle you to use the style and title of "Dip API".

The course will distinguish you as a professional, thus demonstrating to your potential clients that you are a true dedicated professional Private Investigator

You do not need any previous qualifications, though it is essential that you have a good standard of literacy and english skills in order to complete the course and indeed to operate as a Private Investigator.

The course can be taken in your own time but typically if you dedicated a number of hours per week to completing the course you could complete it in under 6 weeks.

The course is provided as part of the license costs and is essential in our mission to provide clients with competent and professional agents. We feel the course offers all the information you need to successfully start your career and also provide a constant reference guide for future use.

For more information on the course please visit the API website course information

 

What area can I work?

Available Regions

The group is made up of licensed agents, each agent covers a particular area or region depending on what back office support or experience they may have (if any). Usually new agents that are unskilled will be allocated an "Area" and often experienced agents will be allocated an area or region.

An Area consists of a large town or group of towns where as a region could be made up of several conunties.

When an area or region has been allocated, no other agents can fulfill this position, one agent per area or region is allowed only as not to compete with each other under the same organisation.

A region is more likely to be awarded to an agent if they are familiar with that area and have been resident in the locality for some considerable time.

When making contact it is important that you state you desired area/region as early as possible.

 

 

How do I apply?

In order that we can process your application to become an agent you will need to satisfy some basic criteria. There is a 3 stage process that we guide you through to ensure both parties are satisfied with each other and also to determine suitability and commitment.

STAGE 1
You will be asked to complete a comprehensive questionaire and application form along with supplying 2 references. In addition we will also need to carry out CRB checks (Criminal Records Bureau)

STAGE 2

Assuming stage 1 is all okay you will then be invited to attend an interview. We will be assessing your suitability as an agent, your commitment and also give all of us the opportunity to learn more about each other, don't worry, we are not going to put you under any pressure, it is merely to get to know you.

STAGE 3
In the last stage of the process we will secure your desired area, discuss with you the initial procedures, terms and conditions and licensing agreement and so on. At this stage you will also be introduced (if not already done so) to your appointed mentor and all your materials needed to operate as an agent will be presented to you. Your first objective is to get your office set up and running (whether from home or other) so that you can begin to accept enquiries following our marketing campaign. Then we will arrange your insurance, memberships and BTEC course and so on.
