JAS Worldwide Announces Strategic Leadership Appointments to Enhance Global Growth and Innovation

JAS Enhances Leadership Team for Future-Ready Strategies

JAS Worldwide, a leading name in logistics and supply chain solutions, has recently announced two significant leadership updates that not only signify a change in personnel but also highlight the company's ongoing commitment to global growth and innovation. These appointments come as JAS prepares to meet the ever-evolving demands of the logistics industry while maintaining a strong focus on delivering value to its customers.

Manuele Mazzacurati, who has held the role of Executive Vice President of Global Sales & Marketing, has been appointed as the Interim Chief Commercial Officer. This transition follows the departure of David Bang, who has chosen to explore new opportunities outside of JAS. With nearly 18 years of experience at JAS, Mazzacurati brings a deep understanding of the company's operations, regional leadership, and global commercial strategy. His track record of fostering a customer-centric approach and driving successful outcomes across diverse markets makes him well-suited for this pivotal role during this transitional period.

In his expanded responsibilities, Mazzacurati is set to lead JAS’s global sales initiatives, all while ensuring the continuity and alignment of the company’s commercial priorities. His familiarity with the company’s culture and operational architecture positions him uniquely to guide the organization through its strategic objectives.

Furthermore, the addition of Angus Haig as General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer marks a further strengthening of JAS’s leadership. With over 30 years of experience in international legal and corporate environments, Haig arrives with extensive expertise in global business law, compliance issues, and strategic counsel. His previous roles include serving as Senior Vice President and General Counsel at Cox Automotive, along with senior legal positions at The Coca-Cola Company over a remarkable 19-year tenure. Haig's collaborative and international perspective will be key in navigating legal and compliance challenges for JAS as it continues to grow.

The appointments of Mazzacurati and Haig are seen as critical moves by Marco Rebuffi, JAS's President and CEO. He has expressed gratitude towards David Bang for his contributions, particularly in strengthening JAS's global footprint and laying the groundwork for sustained growth. Rebuffi's confidence in the new leadership is evident, as he believes that both Mazzacurati and Haig will be instrumental in moving the company forward, with a steadfast focus on its customers and workforce.

“These appointments reflect the strength and depth of talent across our global team, ” said Rebuffi. The emphasis on nurturing talent from within has clearly resonated in JAS's approach to leadership transitions, demonstrating a commitment to sustainable workforce development.

As JAS Worldwide continues to navigate through global logistics challenges, these executive changes signal an ongoing commitment to innovation and excellence in service delivery. The company remains focused on developing logistics solutions that are not only innovative and effective but also sustainable in a rapidly changing business landscape.

Founded in Milan, Italy, in 1978, JAS has grown into a global leader in logistics and supply chain solutions, with its headquarters now located in Atlanta, Georgia. With a workforce of over 7,000 across more than 100 countries, JAS prioritizes customer needs and strives towards a better future for all stakeholders involved—communities, customers, and employees alike. The core of JAS's success is its talented people, who consistently work to deliver value and adaptability in the face of market dynamics. Together, they are shaping the future of logistics on a global scale.
