Global Student, the UK and Europe’s leading one-stop supplier for purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA), is revolutionising the way operators manage their buildings through fully integrated facilities management services.
The company consolidates maintenance, compliance, and supply needs into one streamlined service. From fire safety inspections and planned maintenance to reactive repairs and decorating, Global Student ensures student housing runs smoothly, safely, and cost-effectively.
“Our mission is simple: to make student accommodation safer, more comfortable, and easier to manage,” said Michael Girton, CEO of Global Student. “By integrating facilities management with product supply, we save providers both time and money while improving the student experience.”
• Delivered large-scale fire door inspections and remedial works across entire PBSA estates.
• Provided end-to-end maintenance services that reduce operational complexity.
• Earned key certifications including ISO 14000, 45001, and 9001, alongside BM Trada and Safe Contractor accreditations.
Global Student prioritises sustainability while ensuring full regulatory compliance. Local partnerships in the UK and Ireland reduce logistics costs and carbon footprint, while in-house recycling programmes prevent waste and extend product lifecycles.
“Global Student has been effective and extremely quick on jobs and supplies, meeting all our needs for summer turnaround. Very impressed and would highly recommend.” – General Manager, Homes for Students
With growing demand for integrated PBSA solutions, Global Student is expanding further across Europe, continuing to strengthen its facilities management offering and supporting operators with an all-in-one service model.
