Marcel Litjens
@marcel
I coordinate logistics operations, property administration, and remote digital workflows.
What I'm looking for
I've coordinated high-pressure logistics operations at Sanders Fritom and De Klok Logistics, supervising teams of around 40 employees and keeping loading, unloading, staffing, and planning on track.
At Sanders Fritom, I coordinated the unloading of more than 250 trucks, trained new colleagues on handheld scanners, resolved loading issues, and arranged alternative transport when needed to keep shipments moving safely and on time.
Now based in Brazil, I independently manage apartments, financial administration, maintenance, contractors, and tenant communication while also working through Uber's digital platform. I'm developing further toward independent remote work where I can combine practical operations experience, organization, administration, digital tools, and AI.
