Effective 1 January 2025, Ian Beveridge will hand over the executive management of Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM) to BSM’s Chief Financial Officer Sebastian von Hardenberg.
Beveridge will remain CEO of the Schulte Group. He will also continue to support BSM as Chairman of the BSM board, contributing his extensive experience and strategic acumen to further the development of the ship management entity.
Ian Beveridge commented: “As the long-standing CFO of BSM and current Vice President of InterManager, Sebastian knows the company and the industry exceptionally well and has built a proven track record in various positions within the Schulte Group. I am confident that his experience and capabilities make him the ideal choice to pursue and advance BSM’s strategic and organisational development in the years ahead.”
Sebastian von Hardenberg stated: “I am honoured by the trust placed in me and look forward to the challenges and opportunities ahead. The shipping industry is undergoing fundamental change. Issues such as digital transformation, increasing decarbonisation requirements, and the shortage of skilled workers are having a lasting impact on the market. I look forward to driving BSM’s strategy forward during a time where transition and constant change are essential.”
Sebastian joined the Schulte Group in 2005. From 2006 to 2009, he served as Head of Controlling at Bernhard Schulte, the ship owning arm of the Schulte Group, before assuming the role of Financial Director at BSM Germany. Following several career milestones in Hong Kong, Cyprus, and Singapore, where he held positions including Executive Assistant to the CEO and Director of Business Risk, he was appointed Chief Financial Officer of BSM in 2015.
