Jens H. Lund is the Group Chief Executive Officer of DSV A/S, one of the world’s largest global transport and logistics companies. He took over as CEO on 1 February 2024, succeeding long‑time leader Jens Bjørn Andersen, and has since been guiding the company through a critical phase of strategic expansion and integration following DSV’s acquisition of the logistics operations of DB Schenker — a transformational deal that significantly broadens DSV’s global footprint and competitive strength.
Lund has spent more than two decades with DSV. He joined the company in March 2002 as Group Chief Financial Officer and became a member of the Executive Board that same year. In 2021, he was appointed Group Chief Operating Officer and Vice CEO, overseeing the performance and strategic execution of DSV’s global network across freight forwarding, road transport, air and sea logistics, and contract logistics.
Before his career at DSV, Lund worked in corporate finance and auditing, including senior positions at Deloitte in Denmark and the United Kingdom, as well as roles in corporate banking with Danske Bank and Carnegie. His early career provided him with deep expertise in financial management, risk oversight, and cross‑border corporate strategy — foundations he later used to shape DSV’s operational and strategic priorities.
As Group CEO, Lund is leading DSV through a period of significant consolidation and growth in the global logistics industry. A key milestone under his leadership is the integration of DB Schenker’s freight and logistics business into the DSV platform, a strategic initiative that expands the company’s global presence, increases network density, and strengthens its service capabilities in core markets across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and the Middle East. This integration is expected to create one of the most comprehensive logistics networks in the world by combining DSV’s existing operations with Schenker’s extensive freight forwarding and contract logistics infrastructure.
The expanded DSV network now serves customers in more than 90 countries, connecting major trade lanes with end‑to‑end solutions that include international freight forwarding, inland transport, air and ocean logistics, and sophisticated contract logistics services. Lund’s strategic vision focuses on harmonising the company’s global operations, accelerating digital transformation, and enhancing customer‑centric supply chain solutions across sectors such as automotive, technology, retail, industrial manufacturing, and healthcare.
Lund’s leadership emphasizes operational excellence, financial discipline, and technology‑enabled growth. He continues to work closely with the Group Executive Committee and regional leadership teams to drive integration effectiveness, improve service reliability, and expand DSV’s digital tools for supply chain visibility, predictive planning, and workflow automation.
His progression from CFO to Group CEO reflects both his deep institutional knowledge of DSV and his ability to navigate complex global logistics environments. As DSV continues to integrate Schenker’s operations and shape the future of international supply chains, Jens H. Lund stands at the forefront of one of the most consequential transformations in the logistics industry.
