With his team, he covers the entire value chain in supply chain management, from planning to control. Gabriel Werner helps customers from industrial manufacturing and logistics to digitize their supply chains.
Prior to his currently role, he held the position as Vice President Manufacturing for the DACH Region and Vice President of Solutions Advisory for Blue Yonder in the EMEA region.
He joined Blue Yonder in April 2011 as a senior solutions advisor helping companies improve their supply chain performance through the use of technology. He progressed through various roles and was promoted to vice president in 2018. Prior to joining Blue Yonder, he was a senior business consultant for Infor.
When asked about his business philosophy, Gabriel likes to say: “Do it by the book but be the author.” Gabriel believes the time invested in deeply understanding a customer’s needs yields the highest return. That is why he and his team take the time to really understand the issues facing a customer before recommending solutions to solve those needs. It’s that attitude that earned him an invite to Blue Yonder’s annual reward trip for sales and those making an impact on sales called Club, in 2015 and again in 2020.
Gabriel has a Diplom degree (Dipl. Wirtsch.-Ing. – a five-year degree similar to a master’s level) in industrial engineering from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Karlsruhe, Germany. He is a member of the nonprofit association BVL (Bundesvereinigung Logistik), which aims to promote an awareness for the importance of logistics and supply chain management in industry, science and the public sphere.
