“You don’t get many kids dreaming of a career in logistics and freight.”
I was a normal kid and wanted to be a pilot/astronaut/footballer like most kids. And yet, I found myself in December 1987 walking into Scan Dutch, CGM in Birmingham City Centre, England as the new kid on the block starting out in the big wide world of shipping and freight forwarding.
I was (and still am!) a very energetic and confident young man and took my new job very seriously – looking after the import containers arriving into Tilbury from Asia was a big job you know! With an inquisitive brain and a real hunger to learn and try new things, what followed was a roller coaster 8 years holding a number of different positions with a variety of carriers and forwarding companies.
