                                                                     No. 13/2015

ISS A/S (ISS.CO, ISS DC), a global leading facility services provider, today
announced a new and strengthened organisational structure to increase customer
focus. The new structure will become effective as of 1 September 2015. 

Two new roles will be created. A new global Chief Operating Officer role will
drive customer retention and the delivery of operational excellence to key
account customers in partnership with the regional and country organisations. A
new Chief Commercial Officer role will drive commercial capabilities, new sales
and key account customer growth with a focus on our regional and global sales
pipeline. 

To increase the focus on the Americas as a strategically important market, a
dedicated Americas region comprising both North America and Latin America is
being established. 

Jeff Gravenhorst, Group CEO, ISS A/S, said:

'Over the last few years ISS has successfully built up a strong global business
platform with the ability to deliver Integrated Facility Services to run
customer premises. This has particularly been driven by strong key account
relationships across the world.  We are now ready to further sharpen the focus
on our important key customers locally, regionally and globally.' 

'To support the stronger focus on key customers and our Global Corporate
Clients we are enhancing the Executive Group Management Board. Two new global
roles as Chief Commercial Officer and Chief Operating Officer will strengthen
our commercial focus and ensure accelerated application of our best practices
within people, processes and operations. A new regional CEO role will focus on
the Americas, which is a strategically important region for ISS.' 

The Executive Group Management Board will consist of: Jeff Gravenhorst (Group
Chief Executive Officer), Heine Dalsgaard (Group Chief Financial Officer),
Henrik Andersen (Group Chief Operating Officer), Andrew Price (Group Chief
Commercial Officer), Michelle Healy (Group Chief People & Culture Officer), and
the Regional CEOs John Peri (Americas), Troels Bjerg (Northern Europe),
Flemming Bendt (Eastern Europe), Jacob Götzsche (Central Europe), and Thomas
Hinnerskov (Asia Pacific). 

The management registered with the Danish Business Authority will remain
unchanged and consists of Jeff Gravenhorst, Heine Dalsgaard, Henrik Andersen
and John Peri.
