Alberta, Canada-based Bowline Logistics Ltd. has appointed Delly McEwan as its new Chief Executive Officer.
McEwan brings to the role more than 25 years’ experience in transportation, business development, and project execution across North America.
McEwan’s long-standing career includes founding NexGen Transportation and serving as its President for 13 years; serving as a Managing Director in the wind construction industry; and leading a large First Nations Development Corporation as its CEO.
His other corporate senior roles include positions at Kuehne + Nagel, Bechtel, Bantrel, and Air Liquide Global Energy Solutions.
McEwan brings to his new role at Bowline Logistics a unique perspective to the company’s dynamic and growing team.
His executive leadership experience across diverse industries, such as renewable energy, specialised crane and rigging, construction and corporate development, and a collaborative leadership style, position him well to help guide Bowline through its next phase of growth.
“I was drawn to Bowline because it’s a company with a strong, people-first culture,” said McEwan.
“I believe in leadership that empowers those on the front lines. The individuals doing the work every day are the most valuable asset of any successful organisation—and I saw a kindred spirit in Bowline’s approach.
“I’m excited to be part of a team that values every voice and puts service excellence at the heart of everything we do.”
McEwan’s strategic vision will help guide Bowline through its next phase of innovation in the transportation and logistics sector, with a particular eye toward building a comprehensive, asset-based logistics solution for the North American market.
He said he is looking forward to sharing his broad experience in all aspects of transportation and executive management while integrating into Bowline’s best-in-class culture.
“Delly brings a wealth of knowledge, integrity, and forward-thinking leadership to our organisation,” said Bowline Logistics’ Founder and President, Tyler Boyd.
“His experience and passion for building teams align perfectly with the direction we’re headed.
“I look forward to working alongside him as we continue expand Bowline’s presence across borders and into new markets.”
McEwan holds a Project Management Certificate from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) and remains actively involved in both industry and community initiatives.
He serves as the Board Chair of Little Warriors, a national charity committed to the awareness, prevention, and treatment of child sex abuse and sits on the Parkland County Economic Diversification Committee.
A relatively young company, launched in November 2018, Bowline has grown into a cross-border operation serving clients throughout Canada and the US and specialising in moving heavy haul, project freight, open deck and time-sensitive loads.
