TNT appoint first UAE Country General Manager
TNT industry veteran Briton Moulds having served for nearly two decades, will spearhead and strategise the company’s immediate Dhs 2.5 million Emirates-wide expansion.
Moulds takes up the new post after four years as National Sales and Marketing Manager at TNT Gulf, where his duties included strategy planning and implementation, cost control and ensuring a robust workable commercial policy.
TNT Express, the world’s leading B2B express delivery company, has appointed Bryan Moulds as its first Country General Manager for the United Arab Emirates.
‘This new dedicated UAE appointment is a direct response to TNT’s rapid growth in the Emirates of more than 30percent over the last year,’ said Mark Pell, TNT’s Managing Director, Gulf and Saudi Arabia.
‘We aim to make TNT more client-centric, by ensuring all customer facing processes are owned and managed locally. Benefits of this include empowered country teams, quicker customer responses and local rapport with clients.’
Moulds will also be in charge of expanding TNT UAE’s infrastructure throughout the Emirates which will entail a 20percent growth in the workforce by the year end. He will eventually head up a 300-strong workforce.
