LONDON, UK -- 6th August 2024 -- Macro, the global facilities management and workplace services company, today announced the promotion of Rachel Gillott to Head of UK & Europe FM Consultancy and Global Projects Director. 

Gillott will add broader FM Consultancy and project responsibilities to her existing role as Operations Director. Her promotion reflects Macro’s ambition to further strengthen its strategic FM Consultancy services delivery and asset management for current and new facilities management clients. 

Nick Garniss, Director of FM Consultancy, said: “Rachel is an incredibly experienced and effective leader, who has already had a profound impact on our clients’ facilities portfolios. She is now ideally positioned to continue to grow Macro’s consultancy and projects by leveraging clients’ facilities data and information, and managing the delivery of large programmes of capital works quickly and effectively.” 

After 18 years at construction company Mace Group, Gillott moved over to Macro last year. She brought with her a deep knowledge of building consultancy and project delivery across sectors, geographies, and building types. At Macro, she has played an instrumental role in delivering capital projects for clients across broad portfolios, including Surrey County Council in the UK. 

Gillott’s new role positions her to enhance the facilities management provision at the newly independent Macro Group, which underwent an MBO from the Mace Group in 2023. 

Gillott said: “It is such an exciting time to be a part of Macro, and I’m thrilled to be charged with helping to grow the business. Through FM consultancy, we can identify clients’ facilities’ needs, undertake the projects needed, and then hand over the portfolios to our FM professionals, confident the facilities can be operated uninterrupted and to a high standard.”
