Distribution has been the foundation of my career after I held roles with Citylink, ANC (now Fed-Ex) and DPD winning e-commerce clients then progressing to run an award-winning sales team at DPD for 13 years in total.
I then took a role as Head of Sales in data sales for Ascential, before a Commercial Director position at The Pallet Network and then most recently ERA, with Charles Reid as a Distribution Consultant.
We manage 40-plus clients and their distribution requirements. The opportunity to problem solve and create more efficient and streamlined operations has allowed me to call upon the experience in the industry and affect meaningful change. Brexit, the Pandemic, and War in Ukraine have changed the landscape immeasurably.
How we tackle the challenges now represents an opportunity to evaluate past processes and future innovations to create a sustainable platform for growth.
