With over 25 years of experience in transport, logistics and, particularly, rail cargo, new COO provides VTG with a wealth of operational and strategic insights into both asset leasing and rail logistics.
"A consequent re-focus on our customers and their changing demands in these turbulent times will be our first priority. In combination with the leading wagon fleet offering across Europe, this will enable VTG to continue its success story," Martin Neese desribes his first steps.
As CCO, he reports directly to CEO Alberto Nobis and will serve as the architect and executor of VTG's commercial strategy. His focus will be on developing and expanding strategic accounts to drive profitable growth and breaking into new markets. His responsibilities will include the future-oriented development of VTG´s sales organization and refining VTG's go-to-market strategy across Europe.
"I look forward to having Martin on board. With his extensive expertise in the field of transport and logistics, he will help us develop and implement a future-oriented commercial strategy," says Alberto Nobis, CEO of VTG.
Martin Neese joins VTG from the global management consulting firm Kearney, where he advised VTG and other clients in the wider rail and transportation market across Europe and the Middle East. Previously, he held several executive positions at DP World and, prior to that, at Rhenus Group. His experience includes serving as CEO of Crossrail Group and Rhenus Freight Logistics and being part of the founding Managing Director team at Contargo. Earlier in his career, Neese worked with BCG and other consultancies after completing studies in physics and business administration.
