JLL leads the way in innovative
and rigorous property risk management with S2
JLL manages more than 2.6 billion square feet of commercial property worldwide – its property portfolio in the UK alone stands at over 1500 properties, of which over 50% is tended to by the S2 Partnership’s consultancy team. Over a decade ago, JLL selected S2 because of an immediate need to find a partner to focus on and develop its innovative risk management culture. Ten years later, the partnership between JLL and S2 continues because of S2 ’s stability, technical innovation and responsiveness. The UK portfolio, which spans from Aberdeen to Exeter, is tended to by S2 ’s strategically-placed and multi-skilled consultancy team. This team delivers a range of services from assessing and auditing through to consultancy and training in diverse areas of expertise spanning Fire, Water, Health & Safety, Asbestos and Environmental Risk Management.
“Our relationship with S2 has been fantastically productive and innovative. S2 will continue to be a fundamental part of the Risk Management programme across JLL. ”
Alongside site-level assistance across the portfolio, JLL also consult S2 at a strategic level, valuing their informed input on strategy development and implementation. S2 are side-byside with JLL ensuring implementation occurs at an operational level through their direct daily contact with JLL site managers. On each joint site visit, S2 provides site managers a range of operational assistance which is in-line with the headline strategy, helping JLL achieve their corporate risk management goals.
The responsiveness of S2 is superb – we can review and debate technical innovations from management level to site level – meaning we really do work in partnership
Working alongside S2 for over a decade has created some real benefits for JLL, supporting the establishment and development of a lasting health and safety culture throughout the organisation. Consistency in quality delivery of each site visit has been particularly important in this, as well as historical knowledge of sites and portfolios providing a real advantage in overcoming demanding technical challenges. At site level, an awareness of JLL sites and culture ensures recommendations provided after each S2 site visit are consistently relevant and commercially sound. The uniformity of each JLL site report delivered by S2 ensures it is easy for site managers to respond to recommendations quickly.
