That was followed by a stint at Ceva Logistics, where he spent nearly three years as VP of global key account management for the automotive and tyre sector.

In his new role he will report directly to Duvenbeck Group CEO Hakan Bicil, the seasoned logistics executive who, after roles with Toll, Panalpina and Ceva Logistics, was CEO of Imperial during its sale to DP World.
