BELGIUM — Belgian shipowner Exmar names Carl-Antoine Saverys the new CEO, effective Jan. 1, 2024. He will be taking over from Francis Mottrie, who will stay on board as COO.

After assuming various roles in the shipping industry, Exmar says Saverys has made "an invaluable contribution" to the company over the past six years in his deputy roles in the infrastructure department and thereafter in the shipping department. 

Joining him at the executive top level are newly appointed CFO Hadrien Bown and Executive Director Infrastructure Jonathan Raes

Mottrie will assume a supporting role as COO, effective Jan. 1, alongside Jens Ismar, executive director shipping. Both will remain on Exmar's executive committee to support the transition.
