After the 2015 FIFA corruption case, Bareman was appointed as the only women on the FIFA Reforms Committee. As part of the reform, Bareman advocated strongly for increasing the number of women in leadership roles within FIFA and football organisations, as well as more resourcing and prioritisation of the women's game. The reforms were approved in February 2016 at the FIFA Congress and later in the year, she was appointed as FIFA's first Chief Women's Football Officer
