Fielder seeks pastures new

03 November 2011

Ian Fielder has announced his resignation from BIFM as Chief Executive Officer with immediate effect.

Ian has been in post from 2004 and over the last seven years oversaw the transition into new governance arrangements, the development of BIFM as an Awarding Organisation, growth of membership from 7,000 members to over 12,000 and to a position where seeking Chartership is a viable option. He was also instrumental in establishing the arrangements with partners to deliver FM World and BIFM Training, bringing many benefits to BIFM members.

Fielder wishes to pursue new interests outside of BIFM and the Institute wished him well in his chosen future career. Chairman Ian Broadbent has appointed Chief Operating Officer Gareth Tancred as acting CEO.
