FMJ Facilities Management magazine providing industry-specific intelligence to FM and property professionals
The national provider of facilities management, commercial cleaning and rope access services has appointed Scott Hudson as its new Managing Director, to accelerate the next phase of company growth.
Stadium Support Services is entering its 20th year of operations and sees the change as an opportunity to fuel further growth and diversification across its portfolio. Scott Hudson has been a central part of the company’s senior management team since 2015, where he has served as Operations Director and takes the reins, effective immediately from current MD and company founder, Kevin Hudson who will transition into company Chairman. Kevin will step back from day-to-day management of the company but continue to support the business in strategic decision-making and governance matters.
Kevin Hudson said: “I couldn’t be prouder of how Stadium Support Services has grown and evolved over the last 19 years, and we have seen a steep growth trajectory over the last five to seven years, which is in no small part down to Scott’s leadership and vision. Building and leading this company has been such a privilege, but the time is now right for me to step back and allow a new era of leadership to come through and take the company to even greater heights.”
In recent years, Scott has been instrumental in rebranding and repositioning Stadium Support Services, enabling it to deliver top-tier facilities management, rope access and commercial cleaning services to a multitude of major venues throughout the UK.
Since joining the senior management team, the company has won contracts and projects with establishments such as Farnborough International, Wembley Stadium, Queens Park Rangers Football Club and Birmingham Football Club.
Scott Hudson commented: “I have loved seeing the company go from strength to strength and take great pride in the fantastic roster of clients we have who push us to continually provide ever-more dynamic and highly responsive facilities management solutions to fuel their success. I feel an incredible sense of responsibility as I step up and build on the legacy that Kevin has created but know I have the best team in the industry around me to ensure we deliver on the vision that I and the whole senior management team have for the business going forward, I wholeheartedly believe the best years are still ahead of us.”
Planned, proactive maintenance is a keystone of every FM strategy. However, with current cost constraints, there are many demands on Facilities Managers’ maintenance budgets. When it comes to drainage and plumbing, however, the expense of repairing blockages or dealing with flooding could vastly exceed the cost of preventative maintenance.
Given your role as an FM Professional, we would love to hear your views, challenges & experiences, and opinions on drainage & plumbing within the workplace.
