LUX Assure, the market leader in innovative oil and gas corrosion technologies, has appointed Hesham El-Brollosy as its Middle East vice president of business development, who will be based at the company’s newly launched office in Dubai.
Hesham joins LUX Assure with over 13 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry, having progressed through a variety of technical and management positions within the Middle East and Australia. Most recently, Hesham has spent time with TD Williamson, as business development manager for Offshore Service Line.
In his new role as vice president of business development with LUX Assure, Hesham will be leading the company’s continued Middle Eastern growth, working closely with established agents in the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Oman. He will be responsible for steering new business opportunities, boosting product sales and driving direct development of product lines, as well as interpreting market information to build upon service capabilities and influence company strategy.
Hesham said: “I am delighted to take on responsibility as Middle East vice president of business development at LUX Assure. At such a pivotal time of expansion in to the Middle East for the company, I look forward to furthering LUX Assure’s client base within the region.”
The newly launched Dubai office will also see Mahmoud El-Hawary, an existing LUX Assure consultant, take on a strategic consultancy role within the company.
Additionally appointed this month is Qatar based sales agent, Al-Balagh, who will be joining LUX Assure’s existing worldwide network of agents. The company has seen significant growth recently within the Middle East and earlier this year appointed three Middle Eastern agents, in Muscat, Kuwait and Abu Dhabi.
Charles Cruickshank, LUX Assure CEO said: “Hesham joins LUX Assure with a high degree of industry and regional experience and I am certain he will be a real asset to the company and our increasing presence within the Middle Eastern market. The last 12 months have seen significant growth for LUX Assure as the result of substantial investment and expansion in to the international market.
“The Middle East is a core market for us, and we are happy to see our presence there growing, as it ensures we can give the best possible service to our regional clients. We have a successful history of work in the area and are delighted to be increasing our on-the-ground presence to deliver quick and efficient services to our local customers as we continue to expand.”
In 2013, LUX Assure received a £3.25million investment, which allowed it to transform from a research and development company to a service provider for the oil and gas industry. The company has grown considerably since then, almost doubling in size, opening a new office in Aberdeen, and most recently, in Dubai.
