Our team’s dedication, combined with our investment in sustainable technologies to drive best value, will support us to provide best-in-class services throughout the historic borough.”

This familiarity, coupled with a strong reputation for service excellence, played a key role in the client’s decision to appoint Atlas directly.

Ashok Stephen, Workplace Operations Manager, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea commented: “We are pleased to appoint Atlas London as our soft services provider across the borough.
