The leadership transition comes as the company advances its “Accelerate28” strategy, focused on strengthening core operations, enhancing customer experience, and scaling capabilities across high-growth markets.

Welcoming the appointment, Shadi Malak, Chairman of the Board, said the company is entering a critical phase of expansion.
