Cargo Freight Services (CFS) has appointed Kathryn Toey as Business Development Manager.
CFS is a privately-owned Australian freight transport company specialising in road transport, wharf cartage, container handling, warehousing and distribution.
Established in 2008, it operates a fleet of more than 100 trailer combinations to suit all cargo and container requirements and over 60 mass-managed company trucks.
Toey joins the business after spending eight years at Arrow Transport as well as a series of other roles in the industry prior to that.
At CFS, her primary focus will be nurturing and strengthening relationships with existing accounts – ensuring every client has a dedicated and reliable point of contact they can trust.
She will also be working strategically to grow the business in a considered and sustainable way, with service being the foremost priority.
Toey told Trailer she decided to join CFS because it “felt like the right opportunity at the right moment”.
“My life had gone through a significant and wonderful change after recently welcoming a new baby, and I needed a role that was better suited to my circumstances,” she said.
“What struck me most about CFS was that the company saw the value in me as a person, not simply as a candidate for a vacancy.
“That kind of culture is something I look for in an employer, and knowing it was sitting at the very heart of the business made it an easy decision.
“It also felt less like accepting a job offer and more like joining something I genuinely believed in.”
Toey brings a personal touch underpinned by loyalty, honesty and a strong commitment to the people and businesses she works with to the business.
“I am very much a hands-on professional, and I treat every account as though it were my own,” she told Trailer.
“I believe these values align closely with what CFS stands for, and I am excited to channel them within such a forward-thinking and people-first organisation.”
Toey said she is excited about contributing to CFS and growing alongside it.
“CFS has an incredibly strong foundation rooted in genuine relationships and outstanding service, and that is something I am truly passionate about,” she said.
“I am looking forward to growing alongside this business, contributing to that culture and helping to ensure those values remain at the core of everything we do as we continue to move forward.
“I feel I am exactly where I am meant to be. People, culture and honesty are the values I hold closest, and CFS is a business that embodies all of them by genuinely investing in its people, clients and the culture it has worked so hard to build.
“I could not be more proud or excited to be a part of it, and I look forward to what we will achieve together.”
