Director, Operations & Technologies•Colleague

I have known Mr. Bushra Osman Ahmed for many years and worked with him on various projects and other business aspects since he joined GTC as a Director of the Water & Environment Division in July 2015. In his work he has handled various technical and managerial functions including supervision and QC of technical projects in different specialties, training and mentoring, deployment of novel technologies, introduction of new services, and business development. In addition, Mr. Ahmed has effectively contributed in the overall business expansion of the company by establishing and boosting services in his field and supporting the growth of other divisions within the company. His role in formation of the technology division of the company in early 2017 was specifically notable. During his work he has been innovative, hard worker, reliable and cooperative. He is a very open-minded man with a distinguished character and a friendly personality. On the basis of his qualifications and personality, I strongly recommend him for any position in his fields of specialty or management. I’m quite sure that he will prove to be the right caliber.
