Brian Ejsing, formerly CEO of DSV Solutions since 2012, assumes the role of group COO, succeeding Lund. Ejsing brings a wealth of experience, having joined DSV as a freight forwarder in 1986. The DSV executive board, effective February 1, 2024, comprises Lund, Ejsing, and Chief Financial Officer Michael Ebbe.
In addition to these changes, new appointments are announced within DSV Solutions and DSV Air & Sea.
