Logistics operations specialist with 11+ years coordinating multimodal terminal and airport operations safely.
What I'm looking for
I’m a transportation and logistics professional with 11+ years of experience across container terminal operations, aviation operations, ground handling, and multimodal transport. I coordinate operational teams, dispatch critical equipment, and keep service continuity strong in fast-paced, safety-critical environments.
As an Intermodal Planner at Adriatic Gate Container Terminal, I directly run real-time terminal operations across rail, road, and maritime cargo flows. I dispatch heavy terminal equipment, optimize terminal capacity, workforce planning, and equipment utilization, and coordinate with shipping lines, rail operators, and trucking companies. I also lead operational response to delays, equipment issues, and changing priorities.
Earlier, I supported complex airport operations as Deputy Chief Operating Officer and managed airside/landside work as Ground Handling Manager, including aircraft turnarounds, emergency response, and operational safety. I’m certified in ISO 9001 internal auditing, IATA TQM for Airports, and ACI safety and aerodrome auditing, and I’ve worked closely with authorities and executive leadership during challenging operational periods.
