(MENAFN- The PR Company) Interiors fit-out company Eire Gulf has announced the appointment of Douglas Drummond as the company’s new Managing Director for the UAE. Douglas joins the team with over 20 years of international experience in the design and fit-out sector, including 10 years in the UAE working for the global design practice Perkins & Will, followed by his most recent role as Managing Director of the design & build firm Horton Interiors.

Commenting on his new role, Douglas Drummond, Managing Director of Eire Gulf UAE, said: “I was eager to join Eire Gulf at such an exciting time. The company has already established a strong reputation for delivering high-quality fit-outs, and with our ongoing expansion plans, I’m looking forward to helping the team continue to grow into one of the region’s best known and trusted build partners.”
Patrick Dowling, Founder of Eire Gulf added: “Douglas stands out for his in-depth fit-out expertise, design background and regional success. We are delighted to have him on board to lead the team and help maximise the many opportunities in both the UAE and KSA market.”
