About

Global supply chain executive with 28 years of experience leading large, complex, international organizations, I have lived and worked across multiple regions, leading transformations, scaling operations, and building high‑performing, engaged teams focused on customer success and sustainable results. Most recently, I served as a member of the Executive Leadership Team at Maersk, with responsibility for the Europe region across 47 countries. My focus has been on driving performance through integrated logistics, customer‑centric operating models, digital enablement, and strong commercial and operational execution. I am a passionate and authentic leader who believes in unlocking the full potential by putting customers at the center, investing in people and digital platforms, and building diverse teams with a strong growth mindset. Talent development, culture, and disciplined execution are central to my leadership approach. I joined Maersk in 2020 from CEVA Logistics, where I was Chief Operating Officer for Freight Management, and previously held senior roles across P&L leadership, global business development, and operations. I am currently on garden leave and will begin my role as Chief Executive Officer of Envirotainer on May 1, 2026

      In order to boost the growth, I co-designed and implemented a new global market segmentation and go-to-market strategy.

      Reporting directly to CEVA CEO, I had the full P&L responsibility for the North Asia region (Japan/Korea/Philippines). This was a turnaround situation by many aspects. The first imperatives were to develop an inspiring vision and strategy for the overall region and to build a new leadership team, crossed-culture but united by the same value. This leadership team delivered great achievements with a strong sense of ownership, collaboration and urgency: we grew consistently 15% p.a. and quadrupled the EBITDA in 3 years. On top of it, I co-led with the Global CIO the creation of a Global Shared Services Center in the Philippines, one of the most impactful transformational projects.
