About us
A team that loves the buildings they look after.
We're Penguin FM, based in Leeds, working nationwide. We don't just maintain buildings; we are built to care.
ABOUT US
Penguin FM is an independent, tech-driven facilities management partner, operating nationwide from our base in Leeds, to keep our clients' buildings safe, compliant and running the way they should.
Real-time visibility into every job and every site, backed by AI augmented technology and a CAFM system built for it. But the technology only works because of the people behind it, engineers and teams who know exactly what they're looking at on the ground. That's how buildings stay efficient day to day, and set up to perform over the long term.
OUR VISION
Our vision is simple: the right solution, for every client, every building, delivered consistently.
We're a forward-thinking, entrepreneurial business. Growth has never come at the expense of doing the job properly. That focus on long-term value, not short-term wins, is what's driven our growth since we launched in 2020. It's built on three things: empowering our people, delivering sustainability and supporting the communities we work in.
We take care of your building, so you can take care of your business.
Our story
Built on the idea that FM doesn't have to be boring.
FM has been stuck doing things the same way for decades. Penguin FM was born to do the opposite: push boundaries and drive the industry forwards while others stood still.
That energy is the difference, and our clients can feel it the first time they meet us. Five years of consistent growth and four years of 100% retention.

Penguin Culture
Penguins look after their own.
For every new client or team member, we adopt a real penguin with WWF. It’s a nod to who we are, and a reminder that every relationship here means something, from day one.
They work together, they show up in all conditions, and they never leave anyone standing out in the cold. That’s Penguin FM too.
