This is a response to the challenges posed by the global pandemic and the associated demands on the company. A new leadership quartet is set to keep the medium-sized logistics service provider on the path to success in the future.<\/p>\n<p>(Baar\/Hamburg) The JCL Group, based in Baar (Canton of Zug) in Switzerland, is restructuring its leadership, also introducing a new leadership quartet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the future, it will be increasingly important for us to adapt quickly and flexibly to new conditions,&#8221; says Svend Hartog, spokesperson for the Management Board. Therefore, the transition from a former matrix structure to a product-oriented organization was unavoidable. The advantage: closer proximity to customers, more direct communication, and faster response times.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>New Management Board<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>To achieve this, JCL has now distributed leadership responsibilities among four members of a newly installed Management Board: Svend Hartog is responsible for the B2C business, Christof Marx heads the Road &amp; Rail division, and Axel Hinz leads the Air &amp; Ocean business. As CFO, Guido Schmid is responsible for the group&#8217;s finances and back office. \u201cWe are convinced that with the &#8216;Product Heads&#8217; in conjunction with a strong national leadership, we will be able to present ourselves even more effectively in the future. The new organizational structure creates additional synergies that we want to transfer to other product areas in the future according to the &#8216;Best Practice&#8217; principle,\u201d says Hartog.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Under One Roof<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Faster processes and more transparency were also the goals of merging the three German JCL national companies. In November, all competencies and services were consolidated under one roof. Specifically, this means: The three companies JCL Air &amp; Ocean GmbH, JCL Fulfillment Germany GmbH, and JCL Logistics Germany GmbH are merging into JCL Logistics Germany GmbH, based in Hamburg. \u201cAs a medium-sized logistics service provider operating across Europe, the JCL Group is already a well-established player in the DACH region and BeNeLux. With the entire package of change measures, we have now set the course for growth,\u201d says Hartog. \u201cAnd we are prepared for future crises.\u201d<\/p>\n<h5><strong>About JCL Logistics<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>The JCL Group is a privately owned logistics specialist for leading brands across Europe, particularly in the areas of paper, steel, chemicals, beverages, furniture, and bicycles.<\/p>\n<p>1,300 employees in 8 countries and 55 own branches, supported by smart IT, ensure the best KPIs in transport and warehouse management. A particular focus is on B2C, where JCL is a leader in home deliveries. A robust network and an efficient multimodal mix of road, rail, air, and ocean form the basis for high customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>The name J\u00f6bstl has been a well-known entity in the logistics industry for almost 100 years. Today, the group generates over CHF 350 million in annual revenue, with a focus on the DACH region and BeNeLux.<\/p>\n<p>Photo: JCL Gerry Ebner \/ <strong><em>Image Caption:<\/em><\/strong> <em>From top left to bottom right: Christof Marx, Axel Hinz, Guido Schmid, Svend Hartog<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jcl-logistics.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.jcl-logistics.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The JCL Group has changed its organizational structure.
