@kylehawkins
Service operations professional at Trojan Technologies who consolidated 13 European install-base data sources and improved logistics and service planning.
What I'm looking for
At Trojan Technologies, I moved into areas that needed stabilizing, from customer service and key accounts to European logistics, service planning, and fleet management. I consolidated 13 data sources into one European install-base database, created a freight charge chart to reduce unnecessary costs, and trained colleagues in North America and Europe on Incoterms 2020.
Before that, I led a customer service team of five at win24 and coordinated three call centers across three continents. Teaching and coaching shaped how I prepare teams to succeed; as head coach of the German U19 men's national lacrosse team, I helped achieve its best-ever result, seventh place at the 2013 World Championships.
