Alara Global Consulting Inc. is a boutique facilities management and workplace operations advisory firm founded by Yusef Gray, a seasoned global FM and Corporate Real Estate leader with more than 20 years of experience overseeing complex, multi-site portfolios across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Built on a foundation of strategic clarity, operational excellence, and people-centered leadership, Alara helps organizations stabilize operations, modernize systems, and elevate the environments where their teams work, innovate, and connect.

Our expertise is shaped by hands-on leadership across multiple industries—including banking, healthcare, technology, retail, and education—at companies such as Barclays, Peloton Interactive, Siemens, GE, CBRE, Sodexo and Jones Lang Lasalle. From major corporate campuses and data centers to healthcare clinics, diagnostic centers, classrooms, retail stores, and experiential spaces, we bring a deep understanding of how facilities performance directly impacts culture, safety, brand experience, and organizational outcomes.

At Alara, we combine executive-level FM strategy with real-world operational know-how. We specialize in IFM advisory, command-center style operational support, CMMS implementation , vendor and category management, emergency and escalation leadership, and workplace experience programs. We also offer one of the industry’s most robust mentorship programs for emerging Facility Managers—helping the next generation build confidence, technical competence, and leadership capability.

Our name, Alara, meaning “water princess” in Turkish, reflects our philosophy: bringing clarity, calm, and direction to complex environments. We believe that great facilities aren’t just maintained—they’re nurtured, strengthened, and transformed. Our mission is to help organizations create resilient, high-performing workplaces where people feel supported, operations run smoothly, and potential becomes possible.

At Alara Global Consulting, we don’t just manage environments—we elevate them.
