Frank Schnelle has led ECG as executive director since the end of 2024, where he works on behalf of a diverse group of vehicle logistics providers across Europe to advance the interest of the sector.

With over 30 years of comprehensive experience in finished vehicle logistics across all transport modes, Schnelle began his career at EH Harms, a pioneer in the finished vehicle logistics sector based in Bremen, Germany.
