A global leader in the logistics and supply chain industry, decided to strengthen its position in the automotive sector by expanding its Finished Vehicle Logistics (FVL) and broader logistics business unit across the Middle East.
Entering a new market requires more than operational capability- it demands cultural understanding, strategic vision, and leadership that can bridge global standards with local dynamics. Our client needed a Head of FVL to lead a JV created with a local partner in Saudi Arabia to build product strategies, and drive business growth in a very competitive region.
We launched an international executive search focused on:
- Industry Expertise: Proven track record in Finished Vehicle Logistics.
- Cultural Agility: Ability to navigate global and Middle Eastern business environments.
- Leadership: Strategic mindset to scale operations and deliver results.
We placed a bi-cultural leader (French–Middle Eastern) with deep sector knowledge and cross-cultural fluency to run the JV, and lead the FVL unit across the Middle East.
