SeaCube Container Leasing announces new board of directors members

Two new additions have been made to the intermodal equipment leasing solutions company’s board of directors

Global leader in intermodal equipment leasing solutions SeaCube Container Leasing has announced the immediate addition of two distinguished members to its board of directors.

Anthony Chiarello is the new chairman of the board, while Inna Kuznetsova has also been announced on the board moving forward.

Alongside its leasing solutions side, SeaCube is also one of the largest purchasers of refrigerated containers in the world.

These appointments reflect SeaCube’s commitment to enhancing its leadership team with individuals who bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the company.

SeaCube is co-owned by Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan and Wren House Infrastructure Management, which operate under a co-control structure of the container leasing company.

“We are thrilled to welcome Anthony and Inna to our Board. Their impressive backgrounds and strategic insights will greatly enhance our ability to navigate the evolving landscape of the container shipping industry, and the equipment requirements of the broader cold chain,” SeaCube CEO Robert Sappio says.

“We look forward to their contributions as we continue to transform our company and deliver innovative solutions to our customers.”

As SeaCube’s newly appointed chairman of the board, Chiarello is a seasoned maritime executive with over 45 years of diverse experience, including his role as CEO of TOTE, a prominent Jones Act carrier, and founder of Lighthouse Maritime Advisors.

His leadership at international carriers like Maersk and NYK, along with his tenure as Deputy Executive Director of the Maryland Port Administration, equips him with a unique perspective on the industry.

A fourth-generation maritime professional, Chiarello has received numerous accolades, including being named a “Champion of Change” by the US Obama administration for his pioneering work on LNG-powered container vessels. He is also a member of the International Advisory Board for the Panama Canal Authority and holds degrees from Villanova University, Harvard Business School, and INSEAD Business School.

Inna Kuznetsova, SeaCube’s new board member, is a distinguished executive in the AI, SaaS, and supply chain sectors, currently serving as CEO of ToolsGroup, a leader in AI-based inventory optimisation and supply chain planning.

With a proven track record in P&L management and strategic transformation from her previous roles as CEO of 1010data and President of INTTRA, Kuznetsova excels in navigating technological disruption and driving growth.

A recipient of the Women in Supply Chain award for four consecutive years, she has held board positions at Sage plc and Global Ports Investments, and currently holds a board position at Freightos, implementing best practices in corporate governance and crisis management.
