Khouzami and Olivier's new roles will be effective on May 1.

“We pride ourselves on our depth of talent at Exelon and we were pleased to further strengthen our company by appointing these leaders who have grown and excelled at the company,” said Exelon President and CEO Calvin Butler. “Carim’s expertise in identifying opportunities and building successful models in periods of transformation is especially needed in our current industry environment. Tamla’s customer focus and skills in nurturing a high-engagement, high-performance culture will ensure BGE’s customers, employees and communities in central Maryland thrive.
