Management & Training Corporation (MTC) UK, a private security company, saw its UK revenues decline in 2025 following the conclusion of its contract at the Manston asylum centre in Kent. Sales for MTC UK dropped from £28.4m to £17.6m in 2025 after its "security and care" contract at the site ended last September.
The cessation of the contract resulted in MTC UK reporting a £1.6m loss, according to Companies House filings, compared to a £1.3m profit in 2024. Despite this, the company's highest-paid director received £211,000 in remuneration during 2025, an increase of 5%.
However, MTC Definitive, a joint venture majority-owned by MTC UK, secured a new Irregular Migration Management Services contract in May. This contract, which covers processing individuals arriving on small boats from disembarkation to dispersal, is initially valued at £462m and could reach £539m if extended to 10 years. It encompasses work at the Manston site and associated disembarkation points along the Kent coast, as well as the Western Jet Foil site in Dover.
The award of this new contract is currently being challenged in court by another outsourcing company, Mitie, which reportedly claims the Home Office failed to address potential conflicts of interest. The Home Office has stated the claim is baseless.
