The importance of a military work ethic

Our company is one that has a deep connection with the military community. Ian Williams, our Managing Director, spent 10 years in the Welsh Guards before returning to civilian life and setting up his own cleaning business.  

A strong work ethic and particular core values are instilled in each member of the Armed Forces throughout their service and beyond, and Ian realised that the unique skills and work ethic of former military personnel represented a perfect match with commercial and industrial cleaning.  

For this reason, we have a strong track record of hiring from within the veteran community, as well as those who share the same core values. These include: commitment, integrity, accountability, loyalty and service before self, which are all vital in order to build a strong team, build trust and increase proficiency.  

The strong work ethic that we desire is the result of a focused approach to the aforementioned values and are desirable traits for any employer. We pride ourselves on tackling any job with determination and military precision, and have built our team on that same ethos.  

Here are some of the characteristics that we instil in our team members:  
 
Teamwork 

Being a team orientated person and valuing other team members as well as working together to reach a common goal.  

Leadership 

A good team member will accept and execute responsibility for tasks and their own behaviour, while leading by example. 

Dependability  

We pride ourselves on our punctuality and our ability to go above and beyond expectations. 

Self-direction and motivation 

Setting high standards as a company and individually are both important for efficiency and motivation. This is an important aspect of our work while also being able to analyse and resolve issues, ask for guidance when needed, and have the self-motivation and drive to get the job done.  

Diversity and inclusion 

The armed forces are an inclusive organisation that welcomes anyone regardless of race, gender, religion, ethnicity and sexual orientation. We follow the same ethos in our recruitment strategy and in how we interact with others.
