Gleisielle Dos Barros

Commercial Manager, North and Latin America

Having always had an interest in becoming an executive, Gleisielle Dos Barros started her career by pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration. After 14 years at Expro and nearly 20 years in the industry, Gleisielle took a bold step by moving from Brazil to the United States to become a Commercial Manager, embracing the challenges a new environment brings!

How Long Have You Been At Expro? 

I’ve had the pleasure of being with Expro for 14 years. It’s been an incredible journey of personal and professional growth, filled with learning, challenges, and rewarding contributions. I’ve enjoyed and learned from every bit of it. 

What Led To The Move To Current Position/Location? 

13 months ago, I made the bold decision to move from Brazil to the United States after nearly 20 years in the industry back home. It was a significant change, but I believe growth is like an investment: staying in one place for too long can limit your potential. Relocating opened up exciting opportunities and allowed me to broaden my perspective, both personally and professionally. I see it as a chance to diversify my career and explore what new environments can offer.

How Has This Move Helped You Personally/Professionally? 

The move has been both rewarding and eye-opening. On a personal level, it’s humbling to see how much I am valued, not only by my family and friends but also by Expro. Professionally, it has pushed me to take on more responsibilities and adapt to a new environment, proving to myself that I can thrive in different settings. I’m proud of the opportunities it’s brought and the ways it’s helped me contribute to Expro’s growth across regions. 

What Has Been Your Experience Working In Different Locations? 

The transition to the US has been smoother than I expected, thanks to the tremendous support I’ve received from Expro both in Brazil and in the US. This journey has been incredibly rewarding, and I’m grateful for the trust the Company has placed in me. There are so many people within Expro who have helped make this transition possible, and while I won’t name names, I want to extend my deepest gratitude for their ongoing support.
