We take great pleasure in announcing the appointment of Ir Dr. Barry Lee with effect from 1^st August 2019 as Group CEO at AEL, who will report directly to the AEL Board with full responsibility for the AEL business. 

Barry is an experienced multidisciplinary engineer. As a fellow member of HKIE he is qualified in the respective disciplines of mechanical, environmental, building services, chemical and energy. He is also a fellow member of IMechE and CIWEM. Before joining AEL, he has been working in ATAL Engineering Group for over 26 years and has played an important role in building up the leading position of their environmental engineering business in Hong Kong market.  

Jude has however decided that the burden of his management responsibilities at AEL will not permit him to realize his academic aspirations. He has decided to take time off to focus on his doctoral program in Business Administration, and will leave his current role at AEL. Jude will take up Vice Chairmanship of AEL Construction & Engineering Limited, and would remain a director on the AEL Board and will continue to represent the company in its external relations although he will no longer carry any operational and management responsibilities.

Under the new leadership of Barry, we have no doubt AEL will advance to a new era of development and will further strengthen our support to customers and cooperation with our business partners.
