Nicki Wusche
I worked with Mark for over 8 years. During that period I saw him use his vast business experience to manage and often exceed customer expectations. He was able to strategise and influence global teams to increase commercials, performance and service delivery. His depth of understanding across industry verticals and logistics sectors brought valued insights to our client base. In addition Mark brought his marketing knowledge to support both the Sales and wider organisation to increase customer awareness, new opportunities and professionalism. A great charismatic leader who people simply gravitate to.
