Puspakom Sdn Bhd has appointed Mahmood Razak Bahman as its new chief executive officer effective from Oct 1.
Mahmood took over from Shukor Ismail, who retired on Sept 30 after 11 years steering the company.
Prior to this, Mahmood was head of group strategic communications at DRB-HICOM Bhd and served as a board member of Puspakom.
“He brings with him a wealth of experience in various industries, including oil and gas, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and public transport development.
“Between 2008 and 2016, Mahmood held senior management positions in distinguished organisations such as Sime Darby Plantation Bhd, one of the world’s largest plantation companies, and Mass Rapid Transit Corporation Sdn Bhd, the developer and asset owner of the Klang Valley MRT project, where his last position was director of operations and asset management,” Puspakom said in a statement.
“Shukor had played a pivotal role in shaping the company for more than a decade and under his leadership, the company has risen to where it is today.
“His many contributions include the introduction of MyPUSPAKOM, an online reservation and payment system that provides even more convenience to customers.
“He had also spearheaded the creation of seamless processes through the implementation of cashless and paperless transactions, as well as various other initiatives towards improving the overall customer journey,” he added. – NST ONLINE
