Maersk has made several changes in its organizational structure and executive leadership team, following the appointment of new CEO Vincent Clerc who took the company’s helm on 1 January 2023. Changes will be effective 1 February 2023
“The business has executed well during the past years, and we have a highly engaged and competent global team ready for the next miles of our transformation. We face a challenging global economic outlook, a softening market and at the same time, our customers are looking to radically improve their supply chains to make them more resilient and agile. This creates urgent needs as well as unique opportunities,” stated Clerc.
