ABOUT HANS PEDERSEN

I have more than twenty-years of experience within the maritime industry. With a back ground as marine engineer I have sailed five years and gained a solid knowledge of the technical aspects of the shipping business.This has been a valuable basis for my twenty-five years of working for the world’s largest diesel engine designer, where I have built up and managed local offices within the company’s world-wide organization. I have had different functions in my ten years in Houston, TX like Senior Key Account Manager and now in Florida, Sales Director, where I have cooperated with some of USA largest maritime companies.I am competitive and driven by the figures. I am very customer and target oriented.I see myself having an extraordinary ability to put myself into the customers position, understanding the need and customers point of view. In that way I feel myself capable to offer, present and sell solutions in a way which fulfill the customers need and expectations.I am a team player, who likes a busy work environment with different organizations and cultures around the world.I have been living in the USA for more than 12 years, which I see as a big advance in my daily life. Living in another country opened my vision understanding how things can be done successfully in different ways. I see this as a unique skill, which I see important in my daily work dealing with customers in different countries, organizations and cultures.
