Welcome to Public Sector Council

The Public Sector Council serves those who manage, maintain, or construct government buildings and facilities. The council addresses the constraints of budgets, organizational policies and political implications affecting city, state, provincial or federal government facilities.

Are you already an IFMA member and would like to join the Public Sector Council? Join us today, or contact us if you have any questions.

Communicate with your fellow council members by posting and replying to messages and sharing resources on the online Engage Community!

Participate by joining us at a monthly board meeting. We meet every Thursday of the first whole week of the month. Our next monthly meeting is on August 6th at 4 PM Eastern. Also, several committee openings are available.  

Learn at our Professional Development Series discussions every month. Watch this website and your IFMA emails for announcements.

 

Help Shape the Future of IFMA Public Sector Leadership

 

The IFMA Public Sector Council is looking for a few dedicated volunteers to join our leadership team and committees.

As the IFMA Public Sector Council continues to expand its programs, educational offerings, and member engagement, we’re looking for passionate volunteers to help us continue that momentum.

If you’ve been looking for an opportunity to advance your leadership experience, expand your professional network, and help shape the future of facility management in the public sector, we’d love to hear from you.

We are currently seeking volunteers for the following roles:

  • Secretary (Board Position) – Serve as a voting member of the Public Sector Council Board of Directors while capturing the key discussions and decisions from our monthly Board meetings.
  • Education Committee
  • Sponsorship Committee
  • Membership Committee
  • World Workplace & Facility Fusion Events Committee

If you’re concerned about the time commitment, don’t let that stop you. We recognize that everyone has different schedules and responsibilities, and we’re happy to work with you to find a level of involvement that fits your availability. Whether you can contribute a few hours each month or take on a larger role, your participation can make a meaningful impact.

If you’re interested in learning more, please email me at paul.head@nuvolo.com with the subject line “IFMA PSC Volunteer.” We’ll share additional information about the opportunity and, for some positions, schedule a brief conversation to better understand your interests and help match you with the role that’s the best fit.

On a personal note, I encourage you to consider getting involved. Serving in IFMA leadership has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside exceptional professionals, build lasting relationships, and help shape programs that support our public sector community. Whether you’re looking to develop your leadership skills, expand your network, or simply give back to the profession, I hope you’ll consider joining us. I’d be happy to answer any questions and look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for your continued support of the IFMA Public Sector Council.

 Paul Head
President, IFMA Public Sector Council
