He joined Dachser in 2009. After working in controlling and strategy development, he was given responsibility for Corporate Governance. At that time, he was already overseeing the strategic development of the global air and sea freight network. Burger was appointed Deputy Director Air &amp; Sea Logistics in 2019, becoming Podest&agrave;&#8217;s right-hand man. During this time, he was initially global sales manager for the air and sea freight business. In 2021 and 2022, Burger led the ASL EMEA business unit&#8217;s operations as Managing Director with great success.<\/p>\n<p><b>Edoardo Podest&agrave;: Two decades of growth and profitability for Dachser ASL <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Podest&agrave; concludes his successful career as a logistics manager by handing over the reins to Burger.
