Maersk announces new regional finance director for Latin America

A.P.Moller – Maersk announced the arrival of Frank Kleinegris as its new regional CFO for Latin America and the Caribbean, based in Panama.

Kleinegris is a senior financial executive holding a bachelor’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree in accounting from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. With over 17 years of experience in the logistics industry, Kleinegris served as Vice President of Integration for Federal Express (FedEx) in the Asia-Pacific region, headquartered in Hong Kong, where he led the Project Management Office (PMO) for more than 5 years. He also gained strong experience in financial tools in his role as an auditor at PwC (formerly PricewaterhouseCoopers).  Kleinegris brings to Maersk his deep knowledge of how to run a profitable, long-term logistics business, gained during his several years working in finance at TNT, including serving as CFO for the same company in China. While serving as Managing Director of TNT Singapore, Kleinegris gained commercial focus and executive management experience, valuable for his new role as CFO.

In his most recent role as Vice President of Integration for FedEx Express Asia Pacific, he led the team responsible for planning and executing integration, ensuring balance in achieving synergies and improving the customer experience in the Asia Pacific, Middle East, Indian subcontinent, and Africa, responsible for more than 12 thousand TNT and 16 thousand FedEx employees.

Maersk’s new regional CFO for Latin America and the Caribbean combines his financial background with the business knowledge gained from his experience in managing TNT Express in Singapore as Managing Director, where he was responsible for all aspects of the business, including operations, sales, and customer experience.
