Project Management
<h6>Project Management</h6>

Senior Project Manager: Huy Trinh

"Hello, after years of professional experience in industrial hydraulics, I discovered my passion for global B2B commerce. A startup called Surplex gave me the chance to turn my vocation into a career. That was in 2000. In the meantime, I have managed and handled countless major international projects. In doing so, I optimise the interests of both the buyer and the seller side. I'm not satisfied until all the machines have been sold and I've handed over the factory floor swept clean."

International Business
<h6>International Business</h6>

Director: Vincent Arsand

"Hello, in cooperation with our experienced country managers, I ensure as Director of International Business, that machine trading across national borders can be handled even faster, easier and more flexible. Buyers and sellers get direct access to the most interesting markets in the world and benefit from the best service on the continent. Surplex is already represented in 16 European countries. This leaves us far behind the competition. And there is no end in sight to the expansion!"

Operational Teams
<h6>Operational Teams</h6>

Team Leader: Tim Krämer

"Hello, transporting a machine from A to B on time can be quite tricky. For example, when an industrial plant has to be divided among several containers for overseas transport. Fortunately, I can rely on our professional team. Together with the project management, our logistic specialists always ensure a smooth processing procedure including dismantling, loading and customs. Worldwide and even under the most difficult conditions, and I am proud of that!

Internal Sales
<h6>Internal Sales</h6>

Sales Assistant: Anne Wallraff

"Hello, many threads come together in our Internal Sales Department. We make sure that machines and equipment are activated correctly and as quickly as possible on our auction platform. In doing so, we cooperate with Project Management, the seller and Online Marketing, among others. We transform digital raw data into used machines that can be viewed and bought worldwide! In the case of complaints, we look for the best solution for all parties involved."

Acquisition
<h6>Acquisition</h6>

Focus Machine Trader: Kristina Voosholz

"Hello, at Surplex I fulfil the function of an interface to the classical machine trade. For several years I worked in a leading position at a well-known machine dealer. Therefore I know the concerns of the industry, but also the potential. Surplex.com is the ideal sales channel when it comes to marketing large quantities of peripherals, tools, inventory, etc. For a short-term stock clearance. Or in the event of a plant closure. The cooperation with Surplex is then worth its weight in gold!"
