ISS UK&I Announces Senior Internal Appointments

ISS UK & Ireland has appointed Martin Wilson to drive transformation of its Key Account Network.

The Key Account Network (KAN) provides a range of facilities management services, including cleaning, maintenance and technical services nationwide, via a team of 3,500 colleagues, to more than 4,000 client sites across the United Kingdom and Ireland.

In his new role, Wilson will be instrumental in the delivery of the KAN transformation programme, which aims to strengthen the network’s product offering, attract new talent and raise awareness of its activities both within the group and externally, with clients.

Wilson joined ISS in February 2023 to lead a review of KAN and help the business meet the new challenge of growth in a post-pandemic context.

Prior to joining ISS, he held senior property roles in the Banking and Retail sectors, responsible for global and domestic property portfolios and the full range of FM service lines.

Andrew Wilkinson, Chief Operations Officer for Office & Production, says: “Our Key Account Network has the potential to transform the way we support our clients and respond to their evolving needs in a fast-paced commercial and operating environment.

I am delighted to be welcoming an executive of Martin’s calibre to our leadership team, and look forward to seeing him deliver the recommendations of his review for the benefit of our colleagues, our clients and their customers.”

Wilson adds: “I am delighted to bring my 35 years of experience in the facilities management industry into this role.

I am joining ISS at an exciting time as it brings to bear the value of OneISS to our Placemakers and Clients.

"I look forward to meeting Clients and Placemakers as we transform Key Account Network to become an even stronger strategic asset for ISS and our Clients.”

ISS has also appointed Damon Cooper, formerly Interim Managing Director in KAN, to the new role of Technical Performance Director in ISS UK&I’s Government, Health and Education business unit.
