Aramex has appointed Nicolas Sibuet as Chief Financial & Corporate Development Officer. The move follows his 12-month stint as Acting CEO and signals a sharper focus on financial discipline and strategic execution.
Leadership Transition Signals Focus on Financial Discipline
Dubai-headquartered Aramex is strengthening its leadership bench as it navigates a fast-changing logistics landscape. Sibuet brings more than three decades of global experience across finance, restructuring, and transformation.
He will now lead enterprise-wide financial strategy while driving corporate development priorities. His mandate includes improving capital allocation, enhancing governance, and accelerating value creation across business units.
Meanwhile, the company aims to align financial performance with long-term growth as competition intensifies across global trade corridors.
Strategic Priorities: Growth, Efficiency, and Capital Allocation
Sibuet emphasised that customer expectations are evolving rapidly. Speed, visibility, and cost efficiency now define competitive advantage in logistics.
He stated that his immediate focus will be on disciplined capital allocation and strengthening Aramex’s operational network. In addition, he plans to embed tighter performance management systems across the group.
These efforts are expected to improve decision-making and ensure consistent execution across markets.
CEO Amadou Diallo Backs Internal Leadership Strength
Amadou Diallo highlighted Sibuet’s role in stabilising and transforming the business during his tenure.
He noted that Sibuet has already strengthened financial reporting standards and governance frameworks. Moreover, his leadership has helped position Aramex to compete more effectively in a complex logistics environment.
The appointment therefore reflects continuity rather than disruption, as the company builds on internal momentum.
Track Record at Aramex and Beyond
Since joining Aramex in 2022 as Group CFO, Sibuet has played a key role in reinforcing financial transparency and accountability.
Over the past year, he stepped in as Acting CEO, where he drove transformation initiatives and operational momentum. Now, in his expanded role, he will oversee financial planning, business development, and enterprise-wide performance management.
He will also work closely with the executive leadership team to improve efficiency and support strategic expansion.
Aramex’s Global Footprint and Growth Strategy
Founded in 1982, Aramex operates in more than 600 cities across 70 countries and employs over 16,000 people. The company offers a diversified portfolio spanning international and domestic express delivery, freight forwarding, and supply chain solutions.
Its strategic location in the UAE enables it to connect major global trade routes between East and West.
Looking ahead, Aramex continues to invest in sustainability. The company targets carbon neutrality by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050, aligning with broader industry trends.
