TCR has appointed Jan De Leeuw as managing director for North America. He is taking up this new position after four successful years as group commercial director. He has a longstanding working experience in the aviation industry, having worked for ground handlers and airlines worldwide before joining TCR.
"I'm looking forward to presenting TCR's unique GSE solutions, including our full service operating leases and sale and leasebacks to new customers and further build the business relations with the companies that already trust us across North America," De Leeuw said. "I am proud to take on the lead of the TCR U.S. team, and I'm happy to welcome Joe Phelan as a new member of the board of TCR North Americas. Joe will be significant support in developing TCR in the continent, bringing more than 40 years executive experience in the transportation industry within the US and across Europe and Asia, having served for distinguished companies such as Swissport, American Airlines and Deutsche Post DHL."
