Maersk has named Aruna Hussain (above) as its new MD of Sealand Europe & Med, taking over from Soren Castbak, who is to leave the company as it continues its strategic reorientation.
In a LinkedIn post, Mr Castbak explained: “A different profile is needed in the job as CEO and it is in that connection that I have decided that it is time for me to leave AP Møller-Maersk.
Ms Hussain, who was most recently area MD for Maersk in Pakistan, started her career at the firm in 2000 in liner and trade roles in Pakistan and the UK before moving to Damco in Pakistan.
She left Maersk in 2010 and joined US-based furniture and home goods e-tailer Wayfair, where she was supply chain and operations director for Australia. In 2016 she returned to Pakistan and re-joined Damco first as country head and then as chief operations officer for Middle East.
“Aruna has more than 20 years of experience in the logistics and supply chain industry and comes with a strong, proven track record,” said Karsten Kildahl, APMM regional MD for Europe. “I am convinced her experience will be a great asset to continue the transformation and growth journey in Sealand Europe.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Soren for having successfully grown Sealand Europe and Med, and having delivered constant and strong performance over the years,” he added.
Ms Hussain said: “The pan-European market is huge, with evolving supply chain patterns, shifts in sourcing and fast-paced technological advancements. Many of our customers are rethinking their logistics strategies to keep pace with these disruptions.
“This requires us at Sealand to transform faster, connect even more closely with our customers and provide the right solutions that will enable them to simplify their supply chains, cut the complexity and grow their business,” she added.
