Moves Forward
|
“We believe this realignment will streamline our decision making and quicken our response to opportunities offered by our customers,” said United Cargo President Jan Krems, as United Cargo named Jacques Leijssenaar—an 18-year veteran from AF/KL Europe—as Vice President, Cargo Sales EMEIA. The appointment of Leijssenaar is part of a new re-aligned sales set up with all four sales divisions, including Vice President, Cargo Sales Americas Jim Bellinder, newly named Vice President, Cargo Sales Asia Pacific(APAC) Mirco Renfer, Managing Director, Cargo Sales Strategic Accounts Helen Kristensen, and the aforementioned Leijssenaar, reporting directly to Mr. Krems. “This change will enable us to serve as an even more valuable business partner in 2015,” Jan Krems said. In a related development, David O. King is now managing director, Cargo Pricing, Revenue Management & Sales Strategy. King first joined Continental Airlines Cargo in 2006 and has led Cargo Sales Americas for United since 2013. UA bid farewell to Rick Fall, (right) who steps down and retires from cargo sales Asia Pacific (APAC) following a remarkable career of nearly 45 years in the airline industry. “We salute Rick for his dedication and thank him for his countless contributions. “We are certain all his industry colleagues join us in wishing Rick a happy and healthy retirement,” Jan Krems said.
