Primus Partners Expands Middle East Consulting Leadership

Management consulting firm Primus Partners has appointed Mohan Doifode as Managing Director of Primus Strategic Management Consulting LLC, reinforcing the firm's expansion strategy across the Middle East. The appointment reflects the growing demand for strategic advisory services in sectors including government transformation, infrastructure, energy, digital services, and sustainability.

According to the company, Doifode will lead business growth across the GCC region while strengthening client relationships and expanding the firm's regional consulting capabilities. His appointment comes as governments and enterprises across the Middle East continue investing heavily in economic diversification, smart cities, artificial intelligence, and digital transformation initiatives.

Primus Partners has steadily expanded its international footprint in recent years, and the Middle East remains one of its fastest-growing markets. Countries including the UAE and Saudi Arabia are increasing spending on large-scale transformation programs, creating opportunities for consulting firms specializing in strategy, public sector advisory, technology implementation, and ESG consulting.

The leadership appointment also reflects a broader trend within the consulting industry. Rather than relying solely on acquisitions, many consulting firms are strengthening regional leadership teams to capture growing demand in high-growth markets. Building local expertise and executive leadership has become a key competitive advantage as clients increasingly seek consultants with deep regional knowledge alongside global capabilities.

Industry analysts expect the Middle East consulting market to continue expanding over the next several years, supported by government modernization initiatives, private-sector investment, and the adoption of AI-powered business transformation programs. Firms with experienced regional leadership are expected to benefit from increased opportunities in infrastructure, healthcare, financial services, and energy consulting.
