Opportunities exist for a limited number of motivated people to partner with ACM Environmental
All organisations produce waste, which needs to be responsibly managed, and since the introduction of the Environmental Protection Act in 1990, ACM Environmental has been transforming the way commercial waste is handled in the UK.
As one of the UK’s leading waste management and environmental consultancies, the company provides a complete, single vendor waste management and recycling solution for medium to large commercial waste producers in the UK.
ACM works with clients on environmental and conservation projects, such as solar energy and LED lighting solutions, in a wide range of sectors, including hotels and leisure, food distribution, sports stadiums, shopping malls, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, local authorities, schools and hospitals.
Opportunities now exist for a limited number of motivated people to partner with ACM to become environmental and waste management consultants on a franchised basis.
Andy Jacobs, ACM Environmental chief executive, says: “Our franchise model is based around the principle of a joint venture, where we view franchisees as partners.
“Our existing franchisees have been instrumental in helping to evolve the ACM offer, so that we remain at the forefront of innovation within our marketplace.
“Very few UK organisations have in-house resources dedicated to managing and controlling their waste management and recycling operations. This means that almost every medium to large organisation in the UK is a potential client.
“Clients typically remain with the business for many years, with a client contract retention rate of 93 per cent (2014-15), so it’s clear that investing in an ACM franchise can generate both outstanding annual franchisee revenues and long-term contracted business - both of which maximise the value of the franchise business.”
ACM’s offering is centred around efficiency, environmental responsibility and financial benefit, without any capital investment on the part of its clients.
Additionally, by engaging with ACM clients to provide a complete single source solution, clients do not need staff to directly manage their own waste and are able to focus on driving their core business activities.
“ACM franchisees typically secure long-term contracts with large clients such as Brake Bros, Palmer & Harvey and Tottenham Hotspur FC,” Andy adds.
“The franchisee actually owns the contract, thereby providing longterm future revenues and increasing shareholder value. This is a hugely attractive feature of our franchise offer, as it genuinely provides franchises with strong exit value in the future.”
ACM’s environmental consultants have a lucrative and fulfilling role, which includes sales, environmental/ waste auditing, advising clients on waste management, recycling and delivering ongoing account development and management.
No previous experience of the waste management industry is required to become an ACM franchisee, as extensive training covers all aspects of this career move.
ACM is looking for highly motivated, hardworking and ambitious businessmen and women with a desire to build and run their own successful businesses. Potential partners need to be good communicators, computer literate, target driven and sales oriented.
If you have the qualities - and the drive - to build your own environmental waste management and recycling consultancy business, ACM offers an excellent opportunity to take charge of your own future.
