Antony Collett named new MD at 14forty and outlines exciting plans to unlock its growth potential
Antony Collett has set out an ambitious vision for growth, driven by outstanding service and a focus on sustainability, after being appointed as Managing Director of integrated FM provider 14forty.
The experienced FM strategist has an impressive track record of spearheading business development at industry organisations such as Wates Group and Mitie. He moves from the role of Managing Director at Wates Group.
Antony arrives at 14forty, part of Compass Group UK & Ireland’s Business & Industry (B&I) sector, with more than 16 years of experience in the FM space. In this new role, he will oversee the strategic direction of the business and its growth.
This leadership transition marks a pivotal moment in 14forty’s ongoing journey to elevate its services and strengthen client relationships.
Morag Freathy, CEO for B&I - Compass Group UK & Ireland, said:
“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.”
Antony, who will report into Morag and join the B&I leadership team, said:
“It’s an exciting time in the FM market right now, and we see many opportunities for growth. 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.
That’s important to me. We will aim to lead in the ESG arena, ensure our customers receive world class services and, at the same time, look to grow the brand. I’m excited, and confident, about what we can achieve together.”
