PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

CEO/PRESIDENT, 2012–DATE
CBRE Group
The president and CEO of the leading real estate services business that has over $5 bn under its control and has developed a myriad of properties, including residential, commercial and mixed use.

Notable Accomplishments:

Withdrew the sale of a distressed property owned by CBRE, then repackaged and sold it for double the market value.
Negotiated the lease of 99 years for the business premises of CBRE, which is 100,000 square feet, in order to effectively ensure the presence of the group of companies in California.

Increased profits net of taxes by 16%, 22% and 31% in the years 2012, 2013 and 2015.

VICE PRESIDENT, 2008–2012
CHEVRON CORPORATION

Under the tenure of Mr. Menut, who was the president of Chevron Corporation, I oversaw the successful setting up of the company in California under a different brand name from that of its parent company in the Middle East. This opened up a private-sector approach to the oil business in this state, successfully bringing forth stiff competition. In addition, I improved and promoted accountability and utilization of good governance and ethics.

Notable Accomplishments:

Restructured the parent company’s operations to befit and outperform those companies already in California.
Represented Chevron at the OPEC convention in Nigeria that saw Chevron listed as the top oil company in 2011.
Improved inventory management and logistics within Chevron that saw profits in 2009 rise by close to 100%.
Set up an agency payment processing system that enhanced cash management and reduced payables time from 60 to 15 days. This system also reduced the resource mismanagement that was present in the previous delivery chain.
