Great person. Very knowledgeable who takes things seriously but also really fun to work with. Motivating and fun. It was my pleasure to work with him.

I have had the opportunity to work with Amir at QAS. He was Manager Transportation where he was in charge of one of the largest airport passenger bus operation in the world. His skills include operational management, people management, resource planning, conflict resolution, manpower and fleet budgeting, among many others. With his excellent leadership skills he managed and led the transportation department at QAS through the transition of old airport to state of the art new one. He is a man for crisis and equally great at strategic level.
