Intecsea appoints first female president

Advisian has appointed Geeta Thakorlal to the position of president for Intecsea effective immediately, succeeding Neil Mackintosh, who has led Intecsea since 2014, will take on the role of executive vice president of global sales and marketing for Advisian.

Thakorlal has over 30 years of management and professional services experience, the last 25 years of which have been in the international oil and gas sector, predominantly in upstream for greenfield and brownfield offshore and onshore projects. She previously served as global head of Intecsea’s Offshore Select business and senior vice president for the Intecsea Australia/New Zealand region. Thakorlal has in-depth knowledge of leading businesses in a variety of roles and situations, spanning technical, commercial, and operational experience.

In addition, Thakorlal was the Chamber of Minerals and Energy (CME) 2014 winner of the Women in Resources People’s Choice Award, the 2014 Finalist of Outstanding Women in Resources in Western Australia, and was also awarded the Female Champion of Change award by Consult Australia in 2015. 

Thakorlal earned a Bachelor of Engineering degree in chemical and materials engineering from the University of Auckland. She is a Fellow of the Institute of Chemical Engineers and a Fellow of the Institution of Engineers Australia.

Mackintosh, who has led Intecsea since 2014, will take on the role of executive vice president of global sales and marketing for Advisian and will be a key member of the Advisian and WorleyParsons leadership teams.

“[Thakorlal] has been a formidable and influential industry presence during her time at WorleyParsons and will undoubtedly lead with distinction and continue to drive Intecsea and the wider business forward,” said Dennis Finn, Advisian CEO.

Advisian is a global consulting firm built from the merger of Evans & Peck, MTG Ltd. and EcoNomics as well as the integration of WorleyParsons Technical Consulting and Intecsea.
