Samir Gaertner | Regional Supply Chain Manager

"The Supply Chain organization and all the regionalization is really exciting. It promotes a variety of possibilities for Epiroc and our customers. It is motivating to be part of a young, experienced team with a bright and challenging future ahead of us. I am focusing on getting to know my team and their needs and working together to draw a plan for our goals and objectives. I always dare to think new, focus on our customer's expectations, and ensure a solid future for Epiroc.

"Being born and raised in a European family in southern Brazil has allowed me to travel and live in several countries. I have got to know a lot of different people and can appreciate many different cultures. I am married to an Italian 'ragazza', who I met in Brazil over 20 years ago. We got married in London and have two kids. The oldest was born in Switzerland and the youngest in the US."

 

Samir Gaertner has worked as Regional Supply Chain Manager at Epiroc since June 2021. Samir has a genuinely global background, and he states his nationality is a mix of Italian and Brazilian, former German. He recently moved with his family to Sweden for his latest challenge working as Regional Supply Chain Manager at Epiroc and brought his cooking skills with him. "According to my family, I have the secret talent of being a chef who can make anything from what is left in the refrigerator taste good."

 

"Two kids keep me busy. With such good weather this year in Europe, outside playgrounds and parks are my latest hobby. When not entertaining my kids, I am an amateur golfer that plays for the fun with friends, and I am an avid documentary watcher", said Samir Gaertner.
