New Sales Director at Logitrans A/S

On February 1st 2022, Michael Behrens will start as Sales Director at Logitrans A/S in Ribe. Michael is going to be in charge of sales, marketing and customer service at Logitrans. In addition to sales departments in Denmark and China, Logitrans also has sales offices in Germany and in the USA. Michael will be Sales Director for the entire Logitrans group and a part of the Logitrans management team.

”Michael comes from a job as General Manager of the Offshore Wind Division at MacArtney A/S in Esbjerg and has previously had the overall sales/commercial responsibility at MacArtney A/S. Earlier, he has been sales manager/had sales responsibility at Lemvigh-Müller A/S. We therefore welcome a heavy commercial profile as part of our Logitrans team, and I am very much looking forward to the collaboration”

 

Gitte Kirkegaard, CEO at Logitrans A/S

Gitte Kirkegaard continues: “I have been Sales Director since 2012 and furthermore CEO since 2015, but as the company grows, I no longer have time for both areas. My most important task is to ensure that we have a healthy, strong and good company now - and in 20 years. Therefore, I will focus on the overall development of our company, while Michael takes over the sales organisation”.

A very happy Michael Behrens says:

“I see Logitrans as a really exciting company with great potential, and I am very much looking forward to being part of the Logitrans team. Logitrans is known as a good place to work, and I look forward to working with the strategic development of the sales department and customers - and in general to be part of the journey for the next many years at Logitrans."

I am sure that Logitrans will benefit from more focus on the sales area and that a closer leadership of the sales group, provided by Michael, will be a great strength and a clear improvement. I am really looking forward to the cooperation with Michael. He will be one of my closest employees and, as mentioned before, also part of our management team. We have been through a good, but also long recruitment process, to ensure the right match. I am sure we have found it”, Gitte Kirkegaard ends the interview.
