I love Christmas! I say this not only because the season gives me permission to indulge in food, drinks and merry making – which I love too! but more for the real reason of Christmas. A day and a season that we recognise for caring and sharing, giving and forgiving, surprising, thanking, celebrating and much much more.
All of these, resonate with the heart of AMC. “We believe it is important to look after people”.
As I look back at the year 2017 for AMC, I cannot help but be thankful for the many who have given of their best for us, so that we may shine; for those who gave us permission to serve them; and to those friends, family, loyalists and advocates who cheered us along on our journey.
To all of you and your families, may I wish you a joyous Christmas and a New Year filled with love, peace and prosperity.
Stephen Coade is the Chief Executive Officer of AMC. Having started his career in the commercial cleaning industry some 35 years ago, in his first published book CLEANING UP Stephen describes himself as a street fighter with a mission and plenty of resolve. Since its foundation in 1989, AMC has grown across Australia and New Zealand to become a circa $80m business with its commercial portfolio covering the education, childcare, healthcare, office blocks, retail and industrial sectors. AMC's journey of growth begins from the centre of Stephen's vision and his values. As he says, "We believe it is important to take care of people. We place our value on the humanness of the service. A service that is to be delivered with care and respect. We recognise a clean, hygienic work environment reflects the character of the giver and their value of the user".
