Cleanology promotes new managing director

London-headquartered commercial cleaning company Cleanology has promoted Juliet Widdicombe to managing director as it continues a period of significant growth.

Juliet joined the business four years ago as operations director before being promoted to associate director in 2024. 

She has played a key role in shaping the company’s growth, with a focus on innovation, operational excellence and people development.

In her new role, she will help drive Cleanology’s next phase of expansion alongside recently appointed chief executive officer Mark Little.

Juliet said: “The most enticing factor about working at Cleanology is that it allows you to be brave. 

“We have a dynamic leadership team which isn’t scared to push forward and back bold decisions. 

“We are constantly pushing boundaries to elevate the business as well as the wider industry and there is a real shared ambition across the business to keep raising standards for our clients and our people.

“We have also made a substantial investment into our new learning and development department this year to create clear pathways for our staff. 

“The feedback already from new staff is that they have never previously experienced training of such depth and support. 

“We attach huge importance to this because we want a committed, motivated and happy workforce with genuine opportunities to progress.

Juliet added: “I’m especially excited to now be leading the operations and business support teams as we continue driving customer excellence across the business. 

“We have also welcomed some amazing new directors into the operations team who bring years of experience, energy and talent, and I am confident that we will collectively achieve our objectives over the coming years.

“In the four years I have been at Cleanology, I have come to really value the stakeholder relationships I have developed. 

“These strategic partnerships are vital for us and deliver consistent quality for us. 

“There is an alignment in our approach to sustainability and social impact and we continue to hold one another to account.”

Juliet’s promotion follows a successful year for the business, which secured new contracts across sectors including law, education, leisure and energy. 

With offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Scotland, Cleanology is pursuing ambitious growth plans after achieving record contract wins and mobilising more than £2 million of new business in a single month.

Mark added: “Juliet’s promotion marks an exciting new chapter for Cleanology. 

“She has made a tremendous impact since joining the business and brings real passion, operational expertise and a people-first leadership style to everything she does.

“As we continue our ambitious growth journey, Juliet will play a vital role in strengthening our operations team, supporting our people and ensuring we continue to deliver exceptional service and customer excellence for clients nationwide. 

“There is fantastic momentum across the business right now and Juliet is absolutely the right person to help lead Cleanology into this exciting next phase.”
