ECJ EUROPEAN Cleaning Journal

EFCI, the association of European Cleaning and Facility Services Industry, has elected a new president - Avril McCarthy of Ireland. The change follows the departure of the Italian leadership from the association.

McCarthy represents the Irish Contract Cleaning Association (ICCA) on the board of EFCI. She said on her appointment: "I have had the privilege being a member of the EFCI since 2019, and I am honoured to have the trust of our members, who chose me to lead the association during this transformational period for our sector.

"I look forward to building on our shared commitment to represent the cleaning and facilities industry interests at a European level, whilst looking to the future of work and ensuring our industry leads in social and digital opportunities."

EFCI says that under McCarthy's leadership it will continue to champion socially responsible public procurement, sustainable service models, and the essential contributions of Europe's cleaning professionals.
