Maersk Line's Chief Commercial Officer, Lucas Vos, will leave his position as head of the commercial part the business and member of the Liner Management Board as of May 1, 2013, the company has announced.

"Lucas Vos has been part of the top management team in Maersk Line for the past five years. He has been an integral part of turning the company around with the ambitious streamLINE programme and lately contributed to the plan of making Maersk Line the most profitable player in the industry", Maersk Line CEO Søren Skou said in the statement.

"I would like to take the opportunity to thank Lucas for his efforts and the good collaboration. We are sad to see him go and wish him best of luck."

No decision has been made on who will replace Vos, who was said to be returning to The Netherlands where he will take some time off to consider his next step, but Maersk Line said that process has already begun.
