Maersk-owned towage provider Svitzer has appointed Sabrina Weymiens to the newly created role of head of transformation.
Svitzer expects Weymiens to assist in the company’s decarbonisation process and enhance customer service. “Sabrina has been appointed to spearhead Svitzer’s transformation journey and keep the company on track as it tackles decarbonisation and delivers superior customer service,” stated Maersk’s subsidiary.
