Bailey Maintenance has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of Jon Lucas to the newly-created position of strategic accounts director.

Drawing upon more than 25 years’ experience in the maintenance sector, he will spearhead plans to expand the business and ensure it stays at the forefront of customer care.

His appointment equips Bailey Maintenance with an even greater depth of sector expertise to help it secure new contracts and deliver existing ones to the highest standards.

He has worked with some of the biggest and best-known organisations throughout the UK. Before joining Carillion, he held senior positions with a number of other UK based building services companies.

Stuart Linington, managing director of Bailey Maintenance, said: “Jon brings a wealth of expertise to this key role, which adds an extra dimension to our senior management team.

“His industry insight and knowledge is a real asset as we press ahead with our plans to grow the business, develop our specialism in the increasingly-important field of sustainable technology, critical environment management and launch innovative new ways of working to meet the changing needs of our customers.”

Jon added: “I am delighted to join the company at such an exciting time. By harnessing the skills of its staff and adopting best industry practice, Bailey Maintenance has expanded its portfolio of clients in a variety of key sectors.

“I look forward to building on this platform and contributing to the company’s future success.”
