Welcome to my blog, where industry expertise meets actionable insights on infrastructure, construction technology, and strategic business development!
I’m Md. Golam Hossain Farhan, a dedicated professional with nearly ten years of experience in business development, technical sales, and project management. My journey in the construction and infrastructure sector began with a B.Sc. in Civil Engineering from Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology, followed by an MBA in Marketing from the prestigious University of Dhaka. This strong educational foundation has enabled me to blend technical acumen with strategic business skills, allowing me to contribute meaningfully to large-scale infrastructure projects across Bangladesh.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the most reputable companies in the industry. My career began at Anwar Ispat Ltd & Anwar Cement Ltd., where I honed my technical support and business development skills. I later joined Eastern Cement Industries Ltd., where I rapidly rose through the ranks to Assistant Manager, focusing on business expansion and technical support. Each role enriched my understanding of the construction sector, teaching me the importance of seamless coordination between technical expertise and client engagement.
I later served as a Senior Business Development Officer at KSRM Steel Plant Ltd., where I was instrumental in converting high-stakes infrastructure projects into significant sales opportunities. My work here allowed me to collaborate with stakeholders on landmark projects, such as the Patukkhali Coal-Based Power Plant, Hazrat Shahjalal Airport Expansion (Terminal-3), and Metro Rail Line-06, Gondhorbpur Water Treatment Plant , Ghorashal-Polash Urea Fertilizer Factory , Unique Meghnaghat 588.31MW CCPP, SASEC-II (Hatikomrul-Rangpur), Bashkhali Power Plant (S. Alom), First Dhaka Elevated Expressway, Bhashan Char Marine Facilities , Agartola-Akhaura Rail Link and so on. This experience deepened my understanding of customer relationship management and government relations, skills I continually leverage to ensure project success and client satisfaction.
A pivotal role in my career was my position as Assistant Manager, Technical Support at GPH Ispat Ltd. Here, I was responsible for developing strategies to convert high-profile infrastructure projects into successful sales opportunities. My work involved enhancing client relationships, ensuring quality assurance, and providing critical technical documentation to support the sales of rebar and coupler services. During my time with GPH Ispat, I successfully contributed to major national projects, including the BNS Sheikh Hasina , Runway Extension of Cox’s Bazar Airport, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Railway Bridge, Dhaka Sylhet Corridor Road Investment Project , Sylhet-Tamabil Four Lane Higway , Rajshahi Water Treatment Plant , Mymansing Kewatkhali Bridge Project , Hatikamrul Intersection , Meteorological Radar Systems, Constructing the Andermanik River Bridge, Metro Rail Line-06 Extension , Cox’s Bazar – Teknaf Marine Drive Road , 28 Axle Load Control Stations , Japanese Economic Zone (BSEZ) , Payra Port Jetty and so on. This role allowed me to strengthen my skills in quality assurance, customer satisfaction, and seminar organization, solidifying GPH Ispat’s reputation as a leading provider in the construction sector.
Currently, I’m a Specification Consultant at Hilti Bangladesh, where my role involves driving project conversions through innovative solutions like mechanical anchoring, chemical anchoring and post-installed rebar technology. My daily work involves collaboration with government departments, contractors, developers and consultants, ensuring our products meet the highest standards of quality and efficiency. At Hilti, I am not only responsible for sales but also for organizing technical seminars and providing design support through tools like Hilti PROFIS Engineering Software. This role allows me to act as both an advisor and a solutions provider, helping clients optimize their project outcomes with cutting-edge technologies.
Throughout my career, I have maintained a strong commitment to professional development and knowledge-sharing. I regularly conduct seminars and training sessions to empower stakeholders, focusing on enhancing their technical understanding and application of advanced construction materials and methods. These sessions have not only improved client satisfaction but have also contributed to the advancement of construction standards in Bangladesh.
