Who lands Legendary deals?  You do, - DHL Global Forwarding has an opening for a Key Account Manager – Auto-Mobility in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Auto-Mobility supply chains are evolving fast.

This role is not about standard lanes or spot movements. It’s about enabling mobility ecosystems through safe, resilient, and scalable logistics. If Auto-Mobility is your space, we’d like to hear from you.
