To celebrate the ninth annual World FM Day on Wednesday 13th July, FM World will once again be painting the picture of a typical day in FM – by giving FM professionals their own 15-minute slot to explain exactly what they’re up to at that time.

In a special live blog we’ll be asking one FM every 15 minutes to answer the following questions:

1. Where are you right now?

2. Who are you with?

3. What are you doing?

We intend to showcase the variety of people, projects and proceedings that UK facilities managers are involved in on a typical working day.

There are 40 slots in total, starting with 08:00-08:15 and ending with 17:45-18:00. We’re inviting readers to sign up with us now for their own 15 minutes.

Here’s how it will work on the day: 

Ten minutes prior to your allotted time, we’ll call or text you for your answers, offering you the chance to send us a picture of you in action. As you will be ‘live’ for those 15 minutes, we may also ask some follow-up questions if you’re up for it (what have you got planned later today, what’s your message to FMs across the world on World FM Day, etc.) It’s up to you if you want to add this extra detail.

We’ll then publish all of this, together with commentary, to our live World FM Day blog.

What we’ll need up front:

1) Your mobile number

2) Your email address

3) Your Twitter handle (if you have one)

You’ll also need to choose your preferred slot from the list below. (Please note, we may have to move people around in order to get a good balance of FM job roles. If we need to do that, we’ll ask you first.)

If you’d like to take part, please email editorial@fm-world.co.uk in the first place. The web address for the live blog will be published in the FM World Daily prior to the day itself.
