The combination of practical experience from 8 years within shipping and the structural knowledge from a master degree in supply chain management gives me the tools to create new pioneering railway solutions thereby reducing negative environmental impact and increasing mobility in Europe.My drive is to act as an consultant and help companies save CO2 emission using rail solutions which still are effective and intelligent and thus a true alternative to road transport. This is done by applying rail solutions where they makes sense in combination with either short-sea shipping or trucking if needed in order to have a coherent chain of transport.I have extensive experience within the following areas of rail freight transport:Conventional railway solutions:- Waste in bales - Chemical liquid- Steel and scrap- Timber products- Recovered paper and all types of palletized goods- Powder products (cement, limestone etc)- AutomotiveIntermodal railway solutions:- Trailer and swap-body transports- Chemical liquid in tank containers- Waste in bulk containersLogistic first-or-last-mile services in relation to railway transport in order to create door-door solutions for the customer:- Road transport applied as a complementary in either ends of the rail-born transport chain- Short-sea shipping as a complementary with focus on Norway and the Baltics- Storage and warehousingIT-solutions:- Tailor-made track'n'trace solutions used to monitor the whole transport-chain including the rail part- Information exchange systems in transport setups with multiple partnersEnvironmental impact:- Calculating and documenting environmental savings with focus on CO2 emission savings by using railway solutions instead of road transportFurthermore I have 8 years of management experience working with passion and team-spirit as motivational factors within the sales team and balancing this approach in complex organizational setups with framework conditions characterized by a high political degree.
