Arsenal Football Club, one of the world’s biggest professional football clubs, has renewed its security vetting contract with Mitie for a further five years. The contract extension will see Mitie continue to provide essential vetting services including background checks, criminal records checks and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks.
