“No two days are ever the same, changing events and situations mean you need the ability to act quickly and responsibly. We all have to adapt in our roles but honestly, working in logistics involves a lot of problem solving.”
“With the recent Covid-19 outbreak, our compliance hasn’t changed, however we have put in place extra protocols and health and safety procedures in order to protect the wellbeing of our drivers. As a team we have to be extra vigilant in the way we operate and look out for one another. By doing so we are helping not only the business operate but also helping our customers feed their livestock which in turn is feeding our nation. It’s an essential supply chain and we are a key element of it.”
“When managing and overcoming challenges, I think the fundamental components are communication and keeping calm. We have all seen the ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ phrase and when we face adversity, the first thing we need to do is to remain calm and then you can start to make rational decisions. At the moment we are listening and acting upon advice provided by the UK Government, local councils and our business steering group. This has changed the way we work however, with some clear instructions and guidance we have been able to implement these changes quickly and efficiently.”
