With this appointment, Tan has been mandated to further enhance T7 Global’s synergies, business efficiencies and corporate governance to boost the group’s position as a highly respected, professionally managed organisation.
In a statement with regards to the appointment, Tan said his main objective now is to establish T7 Global’s position locally and globally.

“We have the utmost confidence in him, having achieved many accomplishments such as transforming the group from an offshore maintenance services company to an integrated solutions provider in energy, aerospace and defence and infrastructure construction.
