Today’s (26 May) BIFM Members’ Council meeting saw the election of Non-Executive Directors to the BIFM board. The two board members have been confirmed as:

• Members’ Council Representative; Ashleigh Brown, Consultant/Owner, Ash Brown Consulting
• Regional Group Representative; Stephen Roots, CBRE Global Workplace Solutions, Account Director

As both candidates stood for re-election and were elected unopposed, they remain in the positions they previously held, beginning their new two-year Board tenure immediately after the BIFM Annual General Meeting (AGM) which takes place in London on 13 July.

BIFM would like to thank Ashleigh and Stephen for their commitment in a volunteer capacity and for their tireless work for the Board to date and wish them well for their coming tenure.

The BIFM board therefore continues as:

• Julie Kortens – Chairman

• Paul Ash – Finance Non-Executive Director
• Ashleigh Brown – Deputy Chair & [Members’ Council Representative]
• John Coke – Finance Director and Company Secretary
