ABOUT US
Pareto was founded to create a revolution in the workplace sector. Founded to be different, to help shape a new age of work.
From the start our DNA was different. We had the instincts, insights and values needed to understand and contribute to this rapidly evolving world of work. We brought these new perspectives because we ourselves have the diversity of talent and culture that will increasingly define the new workplace.
We were delighted to be labelled the disrupter in FM by the business analysts.
And now, just a few years later, with the demand for our different approach proven with great clients, we've won the investment needed to start on a new phase of growth underpinned by a whole new look and feel. There is an exciting time ahead for us, offering new opportunities for all colleagues who want to develop their careers. But it is also a time to remind ourselves of some truly foundational things about Pareto, things we hold dear.
That's what this document is for, to help us all be clear on what we promise to our clients and their employees and visitors. And to put into words the values that guide and inspire us as people and enable us to deliver what we promise.
If we always deliver our promises and uphold these values, we will always be a trusted partner of our clients. I'd like to thank everyone for all their superhuman efforts to date which have made Pareto one of the most successful FM companies in the UK. We hope this new statement of our values and updated market proposition will provide continued guidance and growth opportunities for us all. I'll forever be grateful for your support.
