He brings an entrepreneurial mindset to his position as an International Trainee, and he’s focused on creating win-win relationships with DB Schenker’s innovation partners. Timo is the kind of person who wants to do work that matters. That’s what led him to explore a few different working styles before he joined DB Schenker. He’s spent time in corporate, consulting and start-up environments, and now he is an International Trainee in the Global Ventures and Innovation department while completing his master’s degree. “Logistics is the backbone of the economy, so I decided on this program and this industry because I want to generate impact,” he explains.

In her three years of study, she has successfully completed her Practical Training courses including Logistics and Warehousing (Inbound and Outbound), Shipping, Loading & Unloading, Safety, in addition to other soft skills courses.
She was then trained to drive the Forklift and Reach Truck at DB Schenker’s warehouses by our expert staff and upon her graduation, DB Schenker sponsored Mariam to get her license from the Egyptian Authorities.
We’re honored to take part in Mariam’s professional journey and privileged to welcome her as a significant part of the DB Schenker team. She chose this admirable path out of her curiosity and determination to set an example for the Women of Egypt.
Mariam is working on receiving the special license, allowing her to drive more heavy equipment and to achieve her dream of becoming a Warehouse Manager. Her remarkable accomplishments have been a source of inspiration to every female student and graduate in the Academy. Mariam's choice paved the way for more females to confidently seek and join the logistics and warehousing industry.
We are proud to provide equal opportunities for logistics students of all genders, religions, and social backgrounds to join, learn, work, contribute, and assert their place in the industry. As well as paving the way for other entities and companies to offer more inclusive and diverse opportunities.
