1760

Arc Partnership, an innovative joint venture developed by Scape Group and Nottinghamshire County Council, has appointed Daniel Maher as its first Managing Director.

Daniel, as the new MD of Arc Partnership, will oversee the delivery of a £200 million programme of built environment projects and services for Nottinghamshire County Council, and will grow the organisation to support other public bodies in the region.

Daniel joins Arc Partnership from leading contractor Kier Group, where he served as Partnership Director with responsibility for operations, managing public sector partnerships and joint ventures with local authorities. In his 14 years at Kier Group, he worked in a number of roles including Head of Human Resources for Kier’s Building Maintenance division and National Business Development Director.

Arc Partnership was launched in June 2016 and offers expertise spanning the entire public estate and provides design and project management, construction services, and procurement services to the public sector. Clients of Arc have access to the full suite of Scape Group’s national and regional frameworks.

This partnership has been forged to deliver efficiencies in procurement and the ongoing management of the public estate, with the goal of achieving continuous improvement of public assets for the benefit of the local community.

Daniel Maher, Managing Director at Arc Partnership, said:

“Arc Partnership represents a genuine step-change for public-private collaboration and innovation. Public bodies are increasingly looking to take a more ‘hands-on’ approach to management of their public estates, but want to retain the very best capability and flexibility that the private sector offers. Through Arc, we are putting the public sector in the driving seat, offering commercial acumen with a social conscience and public service ethos.

“Our first priority is to deliver Nottinghamshire County Council’s ambitious £200m capital investment programme, which is of vital importance to the local community. We will also set out our plan for sustainable growth and explore how we can utilise Arc’s expertise to deliver collaboration and efficiencies on projects for the wider public sector. I am looking forward to working with the fantastic team at Arc, Nottinghamshire County Council and Scape Group to deliver a high level of service to the people of Nottinghamshire and across the wider Midlands region.”

Mark Robinson, Scape Group Chief Executive, comments:

“As a veteran of public-private partnership, Daniel’s strategic leadership will help to propel Arc Partnership’s growth and drive future innovation. He is uniquely placed to interpret the needs of the public sector and the solutions the market can help to provide. The public sector faces unprecedented challenges and yet continues to deliver creative, cost-effective solutions for the benefit of communities across the country. Under Daniel’s leadership, Arc will remain at the very forefront of public sector innovation.”
