An educated, informed and competent Logistics Manager who has a long track record of delivering the right products, in the right quantities, to the right location and at the right time.

to first tier logistics and supply chain management. I am proactive and able to keep numerous duties without losing focus on the customer’s requirements. As a proven leader I am able to quickly establish clear expectations from junior staff and I do this by demonstrating high standards of work practices and having a safety conscious attitude. I always encourage colleagues to work cross functionally and not stop at the boundaries of their job description.
