Launched in September, the partnership was created to transform catering, cleaning, caretaking and grounds maintenance services across Nottinghamshire.
To support this joint venture, 1,700 members of staff from Nottinghamshire County Council have transferred to Vertas Nottinghamshire Limited.
Ian Surtees MBA, FIoD, group chief executive of Vertas Group, said: “This partnership marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of public service delivery. We’re proud to expand our presence in Nottinghamshire and bring our approach to a region that shares our values.
“With Vertas beginning this exciting journey, we remain committed to maintaining strong relationships with our existing clients and continuing to build on these partnerships across the region. Together, we’re creating a service that’s not only efficient and sustainable but connected to the communities it serves.”
