Corporate entrepreneurs
In this latest instalment we bring you the story behind MITIE’s Catering Team. MITIE is a FTSE 250 strategic outsourcing company with revenues in excess of £2 billion. In order to continue its aspiration to deliver world class integrated facilities management, last year, MITIE brought in a new management team under the leadership of Allister Richards to drive a ‘step change’ in its food business. To date the team have been transforming the catering offer and have been successfully winning bids and mobilising new operations by driving an innovative and customer centric culture, where quality, flexibility and creativity is king. Through its growth over the last 18 months, and the interest generated amongst the market, MITIE has already become one of the most significant industry players outside of the large corporates - both by revenue and by reputation.
