Executive board restructure

In a move designed to ensure continuity and facilitate future growth, the company’s shareholders have asked incumbent chief executive officer, Paul Kennedy, to become executive chairman. Peter Ellis has moved into a deputy chairman role whilst Keith French has been appointed to the board as strategic development director.

Paul Kennedy says: "I am delighted to welcome Richard Chappell who brings exceptional industry experience to TC Facilities Management. His appointment represents a significant strengthening of our ranks and he has the full support of our shareholders. He joins the business at an exciting time as we continue to develop and strengthen our position in the integrated facilities management market. I look forward to working with Richard in continuing to provide a premium service to our customers and implementing our strategy for long term growth.”

Richard joins TC Facilities Management from the Impellam Group, where he spent 16 years in several senior management roles, including managing director of Carlisle Security and four years as chief executive officer for Carlisle Support Services.
