Bio

A product of the National School of Administration in Tunis, Abdellatif Hamam boasts a diversified and confirmed experience of over a third of a century in organizing and managing public production organizations and enterprises.

Between 1992 and 2000, Hamam notably served as the Head of Cooperation with Canada. He spearheaded the establishment of a private sector development fund by CIDA. This experience allowed him to become familiar with and appreciate Canadian management culture, and also to contribute to real operations transferring Canadian know-how, especially in the education industry in Tunisia.

From 2000 to 2010, Hamam served as an advisor to the Prime Minister before subsequently taking the helm of Tunisia Export Agency, the Tunisian Tourism Office, and the largest industrial and commercial phosphate group, CPG and GCT. On October 12, 2019, he was appointed Secretary-General of the Government until June 30, 2020, the date of his retirement.

He was appointed to chair the Board of Directors of Ennakl, a publicly traded automotive dealership, for a term of 3 years. He continues today to provide consultancy as a facilitator for foreign investors in Tunisia.
