Power electronics company BMPRO has hired Alex Bugeja as chief operations officer.
Bugeja has more than 25 years of industry experience and has experience at Australia’s Reece Group and Jayco Recreational Vehicles Australia. According to his new company, his skills include working in complex manufacturing and distribution environments as well as collaborating with multiple stakeholders and partners, both locally and internationally.
As part of his new role, Bugeja will lead and scale BMPRO’s Supply Chain & Production, Research & Development, Engineering Services, Quality, and Executive Service teams – assuming the responsibility of ensuring operational excellence, assurance and delivery of high-quality solutions to the company’s global customer base and partners.
“I’m grateful to be associated with a company that serves the recreational vehicle industry, something that’s been a foundation of my career for the last 17 years at Jayco,” said Bugeja. “I’m also excited to be venturing into new spaces such as power electronics that provide greater exposure to a more varied range of customers. I look forward to working with and representing another great Australian organization, contributing to its ongoing growth and success.”
Bugeja is joining the company not long after BMPRO’s hiring of Jasmin Lakhani, its new chief financial officer. Commenting on her company’s strengthening of its leadership team in preparation for its next stage of growth, CEO Louise Bayliss said: “Optimizing the way we work, and creating value is at the heart of providing best-in-class power solutions and RV systems for our customers in a sustainable manner. I am delighted to welcome someone of Alex’s caliber and industry experience that will provide us with the leadership and rigor required to guide us towards achieving our strategic priorities, domestically and internationally.”
The BMPRO brand is approaching its 10-year anniversary, although its parent company, SETEC, has been around 54 years.
