Harrison Park has been appointed as managing director of UPS Korea, succeeding JK Rha, who retires after 28 years of service.
With 22 years of experience in the company, Park will lead a team of more than 500 employees in one of Asia’s biggest economies, with one of the world’s busiest transport hubs – Incheon Airport. He takes responsibility for all express delivery and logistics operations of UPS Korea in this new role. He will report to K.K. Leung, President of North Asia District, UPS Asia Pacific.
“We have a strong commitment to customers in Korea, and will continue to search for growth opportunities to expand our services and strengthen connectivity to global trade for Korean businesses,” said Leung.
“The appointment of Harrison as the new managing director of UPS Korea is not only a testament to UPS’s leadership development program, but also reflects the importance of the Korean market for UPS. Harrison’s rich experiences gained throughout his career will accelerate continuous improvements for business in Korea.”
Park has held a diverse range of positions in UPS Korea, including Country Operations Team Lead, Country Brokerage Manager, Industrial Engineering Manager and Human Resources Manager.
Prior to his current appointment, Park was the Country Gateway Manager until late 2017, when he took on a special assignment at UPS’s Asia Pacific headquarters in Singapore, applying his HR experience to develop a new training program for UPS’s C-suite executives across the region.
