He also supervises the operations of the Business Offices at both Beirut and Byblos campuses.

By developing and implementing effective internal controls, the University Comptroller’s Office provides accurate financial data to LAU’s stakeholders, and ensures the financial integrity of the institution.

In 1994, Mr. Abou Rjeily returned to Lebanon with KPMG as Senior Manager for audit, training and compliance, and handled the entire international portfolio of the firm. In June 1998, he joined Mobil Oil Lebanon as Finance Director with the mission of transforming the company’s administrative system into a state-of-the art automated environment.
