Hi Dan
Welcome to the forum.
You've potentially got a long hard road ahead, pardon the pun, but you can find work up here (I'm based in Gods own Country but for my sins work mostly over the border in Manchester)
Do some research and find security company's that offer a range of services, like guarding, event security and Close Protection - while you're not going to be doing any of that, companies are likely to approach them and ask for the services you can offer. They may already have contracts for manned guarding at company head offices and occasionally need to drive the directors about etc.
Apart from the big national providers, there's a few smaller firms around Leeds and Doncaster, and both places having Airports as you no doubt know there's a possibility there for someone with your skillset driving VIPs who just flew in, so look at executive car hire too.
Also look at Harrogate and surrounding areas (wealth), there are a few smaller specialist companies who offer Security Chauffeur's to wealthy women heading to Bettys for lunch or heading to the shops for a spending spree
Next step is investigate and contact big companies directly, there may be a need to drive the bosses around, go collect visitors from airports and railway stations.
You're looking at banks and financial institutions, tech companies, and don't forget football clubs etc
Also look for companies who naturally have security issues beyond those that money alone brings - defence contractors, companies that some people have an issue with their 'ethics' (animal testing, gambling, exploiting regions of the world for resources)
Google is a great resource, just think outside the box a bit
Important bit - have a squared-away CV but take the time to tweak or re-write it so it's bespoke for the type of role or business you're approaching, Doesn't need to be a big change, could just be the order you present the details, but show you've done some research and actually want to work for the company, rather than you're spamming anyone you can find to keep the job centre happy in order to pay you this months benefits.
I see lots of generic CVs and they tend to go straight in the bin, those that have shown some effort and read like the person understands what we're looking for and are presenting us with a solution go much further.
Good luck!
