“ National infrastructure is an area where we see real strength and real opportunity, and it’ s a clear focus for us under the One Atlas banner,” Chris adds.“ As our divisions come together, we can offer infrastructure clients a genuinely joined-up service: cleaning, security, hard services and engineering maintenance, delivered by one team rather than four. It’ s a sector where our scale and our culture give us a real advantage, and it’ s somewhere we’ re investing deliberately as we grow.
“ We’ ve also set ourselves challenges around social value, which I’ m super excited about. We’ re lucky to have some amazing clients who have the same attitude towards ESG that we have, and so we’ re working on some great programmes with our largest clients. For example, we’ re now at the back end of a significant programme with HMP
Portland, where we’ ve created a training
environment so that people who are reaching
the end of their sentence can learn specialist
skills to improve their lives. We do a lot of work
with Action For Children and have awarded
a large number of full-time roles to people
who have come through the charity. We also
work with the British Red Cross and several homeless and refugee charities, so I’ m very
excited about the ambitious goals we’ ve set
ourselves this year.”
As Atlas enters a new era, Chris believes that creating happier workplaces – for
employees and clients alike – will remain
at the core of the company’ s next chapter, guiding its continued growth and success for many more years to come. ■
