APM Terminals

• Accountmanager Landside

  • Jan 2016 - Apr 2018

  In this role I was part of the commercial department. I had all the users of the terminal, except box operators (carriers) under my responsibility. This included the so-called end-users, which are shippers, freight forwarder and barge, rail and truck operator (+1500 accounts). Traditionally container terminals have Carriers as paying customers. In my role I was responsible to develop new tailor made products for this end-user customer group. Goal was to create a new revenue stream coming from the end-users and turn this group of terminal users into paying customers. Internally I did a lot of change management, because the organisation DNA was based on 3 paying deepsea Carrier. In this role my focus were the two terminals in Rotterdam. Show less
