One of the UK’s leading oven cleaning providers, Ovenclean, has appointed a new Franchise Development Director to enhance support services for its franchise owners.

Alan Hope, who has more than 30 years’ experience in the financial services sector, has taken on the role of Franchise Development Director. He was previously responsible for quality and customer services at NatWest Bank, where he honed his relationship-building skills and forged a reputation as an able communicator and a strong team leader.

Newly appointed Franchise Development Director Hope said: “Supporting people in achieving their aspirations has been part of my track record and, of course, I understand well the pressures and pitfalls of setting up a new business.

“In order to create a strong platform for growth, it is vital for Ovenclean to recruit the right people and then work with them to ensure their future success. Of course, Ovenclean already provides an outstanding training and support package to its franchise owners, but part of my role will be to extend and enhance that support.”

Ovenclean is one of the longest established and most successful oven cleaning franchises in the UK, providing oven cleaning services to a large, virtually untapped market place, including not only domestic customers but also commercial work such as schools, lettings agencies and hotels.

Franchise owners operate from professionally liveried vans and so benefit from low overheads and high flexibility. Ovenclean’s proven business model is easy to earn, simple to manage and delivers a high earning, flexible lifestyle.
