Compass Group’s integrated facilities management business 14forty has named Antony Collett as managing director.
An experienced FM strategist with over 16 years of industry experience, Collett brings an impressive track record of spearheading business development at industry organisations including Wates Group and Mitie. He moves from the role of managing director of Wates Group.
In the new position, Collett will oversee the strategic direction of the business and its growth as 14forty continues to elevate its services and strengthen client relationships.
Morag Freathy, CEO for B&I – Compass Group UK & Ireland, says: “I am delighted to welcome Antony to our business. He shares both our ambition for the business and our cultural values of providing outstanding service with sustainability at its core.
“His extensive experience of delivering excellence in the FM sector and his reputation for driving business growth are a perfect match.”
Part of what attracted me to 14forty was the huge potential we have as part of Compass Group UK & Ireland, which has such a significant footprint in this industry, a long history in hospitality and a leading reputation in the social value space, too.
Collett, who will report into Morag and join the B&I leadership team, says: “It’s an exciting time in the FM market right now, and we see many opportunities for growth.
