business development. She was previously manager of External Affairs in
Marathon's London Office representing the interests of the company's
international operations in Africa, Asia and Europe.
“Effective logistics is the key to further unlocking Africa’s economic
potential and FSG is moving fast to be the preferred multi-modal
provider for the continent. It’s a great place to be at an exciting
time,” Ms. Hensel stated.
Anna graduated from the School of International Service at American
University. She was awarded the Konrad Adenauer Foundation Fellowship
for graduate studies at the Geschwister Scholl Institut, Ludwig
Maximilians University.
Tom Shortley joins the FSG team as Vice President of Logistics. He is
responsible for the development, implementation, and build-out of FSG’s
pan-Africa service network.
Mr. Shortley brings 25 years of international public- and private-sector
logistics and supply chain experience, with a background managing
global, cross-functional programs for several leading freight
forwarders. Prior to his transition to the commercial sector, Tom served
for 13 years with the United Nations, where he managed disaster response
and stabilization programs, primarily in Africa.
Commenting further on the new team members, FSG Chief Operating Officer
Pete Phillips said, “Tom will be instrumental in this new role,
developing FSG’s operations network and partnership strategy to provide
multi-modal customer solutions moving people, goods and materials into
and throughout Africa.”
