Kingdom Cleaning promotes Peter Buff to managing director
Cleaning and soft services provider, Kingdom Cleaning, has a new managing director at the helm, following the recent promotion of Peter Buff.
Peter, who was formerly operations director at Kingdom Cleaning, has been with the company for over four years, and has 25 years' experience in leadership.
He has previously held senior roles, spanning operations, account development and sales, for firms including Johnson Controls GWS (now CBRE), ENGIE, and Mitie.
Following the acquisition of Facilicom UK by Kingdom Services Group in 2021, Peter will oversee the cleaning division of the company, with the goal of making its services more personalised and efficient. His initial aim is to support clients as they ease back into the office environment, by ensuring his high-performing teams create safe and inspiring workspaces.
Peter's position as managing director commenced on 1st February 2022, following the departure of Jan-Hein Hemke, who had led Kingdom Cleaning (and formerly Facilicom UK) for over 17-years.
Peter says of his new role: "Following Jan-Hein's inspirational leadership, I am delighted to be stepping into the role of managing director. The business has been a key player in the cleaning & hygiene industry for decades, from our roots with the Facilicom Group, to being part of the Kingdom Group family today, and I am excited to take it to the next level in my new role.
"Building on the strength and potential of both Kingdom Cleaning and Kingdom Services Group, we have major plans to make the company an even higher performing business, delivering added value and high-quality services to our current and future clients. As we embark on this new chapter, I am very much looking forward to working with the team, and our customers, to bring our high-energy ideas to life."
