Top job changes at DHL UK and France
DHL Express has announced important job changes in two of its key European markets, UK and France, after the finalisation of recent restructuring measures.
Chris Muntwyler (55) has left his position as managing director of DHL Express UK and Ireland, the German transport newspaper DVZ reported. Muntwyler took over the post in 2005 with the job of restructuring the company. This restructuring had been completed and the new growth period would be led by a new chief, Deutsche Post confirmed. Muntwyler, who has been with DHL Express since 1999, will take on new responsibilities.
Meanwhile, in France, DHL has appointed Florence Noblot as the new head of DHL International Express, one of the three new operating companies of DHL Express in the country. Noblot, who has been with DHL since 1993, is now heading the air express business unit with a workforce of 1,500 employees located at 35 sites. Her primary responsibility will be setting up DHL’s new air network in France that is linked to the opening of the new European hub at Leipzig. She was previously Vice President of DHL Global Customer Solutions for the Asia-Pacific region since May 2006, managing DHL’s 100 major international customers.
The operator has reorganised French operations into three operating companies, DHL Express Services, DHL International Express and DHL Freight, DHL Express Europe CEO Scott Price told CEP-Research in an interview in February.
