“Logistics is a relentless, fast-moving industry where execution is everything, and getting here has come down to one thing more than any other – an exceptional team that backs each other every single day,” he said.
“A special thank you to Roy Kazamias for his continued trust and support. Your belief in me has made a real difference, and I don’t take it for granted.
