During this time, he has been responsible for the development of the Property Professional Services business and, more recently, its Government Agencies portfolio, handling £500 million of business development.
Sodexo has an ambitious growth target for the coming years, built on significant investment in our digital transformation and our sustainable food services.
I’m looking forward to bringing Sodexo’s full potential to life for our clients and consumers, and am proud of the role I will play in our mission to grow with purpose.
Our ambition is to be the market leader in sustainable food and valued experiences in the UK & Ireland.
The Chief Growth Officer brings together the strategic components of growth into a central powerhouse led by Dan who, since joining Sodexo, has successfully developed key parts of our business.
Our business is transforming with greater agility and enabling us to deliver our collective ambition.
This new role is an example of our absolute commitment to creating and delivering best in class services for our clients and consumers.
