Emirates has appointed Jaber Mohamed as its area manager for Bangladesh, effective from August 1 this year.

Jaber will take on the responsibility of leading the Dubai-based flag carrier's operations, driving growth, and strengthening its footprint in the country, said a press release.

He will replace Mohammed Al Hammadi, who will assume the role of a manager for Iran and Central Asia.

He will report to Ahmed Khoory, senior vice-president of the commercial operations for West Asia and Indian Ocean at the airline.

Jaber joined Emirates in 2010.

He embarked on his career with Emirates in a management training programme, where he served as an outstation manager until 2012.

After that, he served as an area manager for Cyprus, Greece, Uganda, and Taiwan and as a country manager for the Philippines.

Emirates started its operations in Bangladesh in 1986 and currently offers 21 flights a week from Dhaka.
