Robertson Group has renamed its Facilities Management division as RFM and appointed Adrian Mole as Chief Executive Officer, RFM, as part of a wider initiative to operate its businesses more independently.

Mole has spent the past eight years at Robertson, most recently serving as Executive Managing Director of Robertson Facilities Management. With more than 30 years' industry experience, he has helped win and deliver major contracts and supported the division's expansion across the UK.

In his new post, Mole will guide the next stage of RFM's growth, with the business continuing to operate across hard and soft FM while building further capability in energy management and decarbonisation.

Adrian commented: "The facilities management industry is constantly evolving, presenting both opportunities and challenges. By remaining committed to embracing innovation, adopting new technologies and developing long-term partnerships, we will continue to meet the changing demands to ensure sustainable growth.

"I'm proud to play a key role in this next chapter, where our focus remains on delivering service excellence for our clients across existing and new geographies."

Elliot Robertson, Chief Executive Officer, Robertson Group, said: "RFM has been established as part of the next stage of evolution for Robertson Group as it celebrates 60 years of successful trading.

"Over the last eight years, Adrian's leadership has been central to the organic growth of our facilities management offering and in helping establish the new brand. RFM will further enhance its presence across UK markets by creating efficiencies for clients in both the public and private sectors."

Facilities management has been a core Robertson service for 25 years, with customers including the Scottish Fire & Rescue Service, NHS Business Services Authority, National Galleries of Scotland, Wakefield Council, Scotrail, and Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council.

RFM remains a Robertson family-owned business, supported by the Robertson Group Board.
