Jill Frey is a trailblazing force in the facilities services industry, serving as CEO of Cummins Facility Services, a national, independent, and 100% women-owned company headquartered in Central Ohio. A second-generation leader, Jill has transformed the company—founded in 1972—into a pioneer of smart building innovation, championing sustainability, data-driven solutions, and cutting-edge technology to redefine what’s possible in janitorial and maintenance services.
In addition to leading CFS, Jill is the visionary behind four companies that together are shaping the future of the built environment. Through her leadership, she has implemented AI, sensor-based tracking, and indoor air quality technology to elevate service transparency and empower clients with real-time insights. Her passion lies in pushing boundaries—bringing clarity, modernization, and excellence to an often-overlooked industry.
She is the driving force behind FacilityGenius, a real-time sensor and data platform that brings transparency and intelligence to facility operations, and FacilityInsites, a consulting firm that helps organizations modernize through customized tech integration. Jill also leads as Chairwoman of Facility Data Standard (FDS), uniting industry leaders around a shared vision for standardized, actionable building data.
Jill regularly speaks on the global stage—including Interclean and ISSA—where she advocates for the role of women in leadership, the power of data, and the future of smart cleaning. She brings a fierce yet thoughtful voice to a traditionally male-dominated field, inspiring the next generation to lead with vision, values, and a relentless drive for progress.
When she’s not revolutionizing facilities, you can find Jill traveling the world, hiking new trails, or ideating her next big move. Whether she’s talking tech stacks or team dynamics, she’s always focused on the future—and making it brighter for everyone.
