New Group Chief Executive Officer for Aramex
Aramex, a global provider of logistics and transportation solutions, today announced the Board-approved appointment of Amadou Diallo as Group Chief Executive Officer, effective 01 May 2026.
Amadou brings more than 30 years of global leadership experience in the logistics industry, with a strong record of building high-performing teams and leading transformation across freight, express, and supply chain operations. Most recently, he served as CEO for the Middle East & Africa at DHL Global Forwarding.
Over the course of his career, he has held a range of senior leadership roles – including CEO, CFO, and COO positions – across major business units spanning Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa.

Leadership Continuity During Transition
Until Amadou formally assumes the role, Nicolas Sibuet will continue as Acting Group CEO, leading the company through the close of the 2025 financial year and into 2026. Nicolas has provided strong, steady leadership during a period of transformation and will remain focused on execution and delivery throughout the transition.
Captain Mohamed Juma Alshamsi, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Aramex, said: “We are very pleased to welcome Amadou Diallo to Aramex as our next CEO. His global experience, operational depth, and people-first leadership style make him the right person to lead us into our next chapter. This appointment reflects our full confidence in his ability to drive continued momentum and value creation. We also extend our deep appreciation to Nicolas Sibuet for his ongoing leadership and unwavering commitment to the business.”
Aramex is committed to a seamless leadership transition and looks ahead with confidence to a new chapter under Amadou’s leadership as the Company progresses with its Accelerate28 strategy and transformation program.
