Wellingborough Norse has won a contract to provide cleaning at Thomas Becket Catholic School, located between Northampton and Wellingborough.

The three-year agreement is worth around £335,000 to Wellingborough Norse and will see the TUPE transfer of 16 staff members into the company.

George Jarvis, business development manager at Wellingborough Norse, said the firm was “quickly becoming the ‘go-to’ contractor for cleaning contracts, and are known for offering innovative ways to provide school cleaning whilst helping to ensure schools maintain services within their budgets”.

Educational sector cleaning is worth around £500,000 a year to Wellingborough Norse and provides employment for 60 people across Northamptonshire.

Norse Security, part of Norse Commercial Services, has also retained its static guarding and events security provision at Norwich’s Forum under a new two-year agreement, and renewed a three-year contract with Victory Housing for mobile patrol security services.
