Newly-formed Zeamarine has a new chief commercial officer.
Dominik Stehle will start up at the Houston-based breakbulk and heavy-lift shipping company on 1 February.
"The addition of Dominik to the team marks an important milestone in our journey to become the most customer-focused MPP carrier in the industry," Zeaborn Group managing partners Jan-Hendrik Toebbe and Ove Meyer said in a statement.
Stehle will be based in Hamburg.
He joins the company from the Deugro Group where he was executive vice president and sat on the executive board.
The nearly 100-ship-strong Zeamarine was formed in May in a merger between Intermarine and Zeaborn. It was cleared by US regulatory authorities to begin operations in September.
