Throughout his 40+ years in the security industry, Kevin Dunbar has touched every aspect of the Dunbar Brand. In 1980, at the age of 21, Kevin began his career when he started as a Driver Guard for Dunbar Armored. Kevin’s career progression led him to join and eventually direct the sales team for Dunbar Guard Services in 1984. He successfully grew the Guard Services team and portfolio for three years before returning to Dunbar Armored in 1987. After serving in a middle management capacity for almost a decade, Kevin was promoted to Chief Operating Officer of Dunbar Armored in 1998. After three years of delivering consistent financial results as the COO of Dunbar Armored, Kevin was named as President in 2001 and eventually CEO in 2003. Kevin’s direct engagement with all levels of operations, sales and customer service throughout his tenure at Dunbar Armored solidified his standing among business leaders in building one of the most successful American based, family owned businesses in recent history.

With the 2018 divestiture of his cash-in-transit operation, Kevin has focused on guiding and expanding both Dunbar Security Solutions and Dunbar Security Products as he continues Dunbar’s nearly 100-year legacy as “The Most Trusted Name in Security.” Under his leadership, The Dunbar Companies have evolved their offerings while remaining dedicated to providing clientele with a customized, high-quality experience to ensure that they receive the best products and services to protect their people and their properties.

As Kevin transitions from his days of leading Dunbar Armored, he continues to replicate his time-tested blueprint for leadership across both Dunbar Security Solutions and Dunbar Security Products. The critical component of his leadership philosophy is the selection of leaders and the allowance for those leaders to flourish with the correct resources. Kevin has worked to instill this philosophy by empowering Dunbar Companies COO Andrew Maggio and CFO Jeff Berg to do the same. He guides Andrew and Jeff to make sure that they are driven to select, train and guide their respective leaderships teams as well as team members at all levels of the organization. Kevin’s guidance to his Executive Team is to always make sure it’s about our people. “If we have the right people with the proper tools, they will serve our customers and lead our company to growth and additional resources to drive our people to greater levels of service and protection to our customers.”

Kevin holds a B.S. in Business Administration from James Madison University (1980) and an M.B.A. from University of Baltimore (1995).
