This deal will allow Receptel to grow and increase its success even further. We will invest in technology and apps, and offer Receptel’s staff more training and development opportunities. The Receptel brand and culture - and everything that makes this beautiful company unique - will be maintained. In the coming years, we will further develop the range of services together.” 

 

With an annual turnover of 10 million, Receptel has 250 front-office and facilities specialists working at 150 clients across Belgium. Caroline Saeremans, Business Unit Manager at Receptel, will remain with the business, together with the rest of the team. Saeremans: “I am thrilled to work with the people of Armonia. By taking this step, Receptel is joining a strong international family of like-minded companies, specialised in hospitality and facility services. The focus on customer satisfaction, distinctive personal service and the human touch connects us all. The takeover will provide Receptel with new opportunities for both customers and employees.” 

 

Katty Scheerlinck, CEO at RGF Staffing Belgium, explains: “Over the past 20 years, Receptel has grown to become the market leader in hospitality and reception services in Belgium, with a strong national team and diverse client base. We are pleased that, with the acquisition by Armonia, Receptel can continue to grow thanks to the investments and expertise of an international organisation with hospitality and facility management as core business.”

      Commitments Armonia Facility Management

      In line with the Group's culture and values, we are confident in our ability to evolve and improve in order to offer all our clients a beneficial, long-lasting and caring working relationship.  

       

      We are committed from today to offer a better tomorrow, one that is more respectful of human rights. Armonia has defined its CSR strategy and Sustainable Development policy in order to assist its employees in their collective success and to be a real driving force for change in the FM service sector.

       

      We are proud of the diversity of our profiles and the diverse career paths of our talents.  

       

      This is why, since 2006, professional equality, solidarity and the continuous improvement of working conditions within our teams have been our major CSR focuses.

       

       

      CSR at the heart of our approach

      Our CSR commitments are based on three pillars: our employees, the environment and societal innovation. They are applied in a logic of progress, the power of "small steps". The aim is to continuously integrate CSR performance into our services, while respecting the sustainable development challenges specific to each of our stakeholders.

       

       

      a brand of a committed employer
      culture Armonia facility management

      Driven by the group's rebranding, Armonia's employer brand reflects our desire to harmonise the development of expertise within our teams and to provide more balance of our inclusive dynamic and vector for social advancement.

       

      #ArmoniaLife is our way of life,  to unite and share our good times, illustrate our team spirit and promote, together, the experience of our employees.

      investing in our talents

      Our employees are our strength. We believe in the importance of continuous training and expertise development for our 16,000 employees. 

      With more than 60% of our managers coming from internal mobility, we encourage our teams to train, reinvent themselves and show initiative in order to develop within Armonia or our subsidiaries.

      embodying the energy and enthusiasm of tomorrow

      Our employees define our DNA. We cultivate diversity and open-mindedness within our teams. We attach more importance to the profile and personality of our talents than to their academic background.

      At Armonia, professional equality, the fight against all forms of discrimination and respect for the work-life balance are part of the HR fundamentals we ensure professional equality.

      inspiring to offer a human adventure

      Our employees are our voice. We believe in continuous improvement as a driving force for performance.

      Because our talents are best placed to tell the story of who we are, we encourage exchanges between employees and potential new recruits. Our Ambassadors programme provides this dynamic, both externally and internally.
