Murray Goes Global

The dust had barely settled after Iain Murray's farewell speech as Chair of the British Institute of Facilities Management and no sooner has he been elected Deputy Chair of Global FM. The announcement came yesterday as members gathered in Atlanta for the Global FM Board Meeting, ahead of IFMA's World Workplace Conference and Expo.

A worldwide alliance of member-centered organisations, Global Facility Management Association founded in 2006, is dedicated to providing leadership in the FM profession. It's mission statement: 'Promote the strategic value and progress of facilities management'.

Iain will be working alongside Teena Shouse, Senior FM Consultant at Facility Engineering Associates in Kansas, who has been appointed Chair of Global FM. Additionally Iain will act as Chair of the new Global FM Ambassador Programme.

CEO of total FM provider Connected FM, experienced FM consultant, seasoned orator and progressionist, Iain is ideally suited to his new role and excited about the opportunities ahead. As a well known figure amongst FM professionals and the social media arena, it's no surprise that the congratulatory tweets have been flooding in thick and fast. To them we add our own salute! Well done boss.
