Atlas Workplace Services has reported a strong year of organic growth, securing more than £28m in new contract wins during 2025, alongside measurable progress on ESG outcomes that are making a real difference to clients.
The UK facilities management specialist, part of the Atlas FM group, won and retained work across corporate, financial services and higher education, reinforcing its position as a trusted engineering-led workplace services partner.
Karen O’Neill, Managing Director, who took over leading the business in March 2025, said: “2025 has been a really positive year for Atlas Workplace Services. We’ve grown through strong wins and successful rebids, while continuing to raise standards in engineering, energy, and compliance. Most importantly, we’ve done it in a way that reflects who we are: people-first, accountable, and focused on delivering great outcomes for our clients. We firmly believe that if our people are happy, it naturally leads to increased customer satisfaction.”
New business secured during the year totalled more than £28m in total contract value. This included a £7.5m national total facilities management contract, a £2.5m win with a global insurance firm, £9m of engineering and compliance services across two London universities, and a £9m TFM contract at a UK technology, research and development campus.
The business also successfully renewed key partnerships with clients in the corporate sector and completed the integration of Sovereign FM. This acquisition welcomed exceptional clients and talented teams into the Atlas family, as well as strengthening its technical capability and footprint across Greater London and the South East.
Alongside growth, Atlas Workplace Services continues to invest in its people and capability, embedding the Atlas Way. This is a focus on how our people work together, take ownership, and deliver great customer service. In a sign of its people-focused culture, more than 70 colleagues were nominated in the annual Stars of Atlas Awards. The business rolled out mental health awareness training to managers nationwide and continues to prioritise the training of front-line staff in the WorldHost Principles of Customer Service.
ESG delivery was a core focus throughout 2025. The business rolled out Demand Logic building analytics at a major client site, using live performance data to drive energy and reliability improvements. On one of the university accounts, verified engineering initiatives delivered tangible results, including energy reductions of up to 30% through new descaling technology, and filtration upgrades cutting CO₂ emissions by 66% while saving more than 100 MWh annually. Waste and compliance performance also improved, with a 38% increase in recycling against baseline and enhanced cradle-to-grave hazardous waste tracking.
Karen O’Neill added: “We’re ending the year with a strong pipeline and clear ambitions for 2026. Our focus is on sustaining high performance while continuing to build a culture that supports our people and delivers for our clients. Thank you to all our people for their fantastic efforts throughout a successful 2025.”
