How long have you been a part of the Universal Tankers team?

5 years

Can you share a bit about your background and experience in the industry?

I used to work for a waste recycling company for 6 years that was based in Thirsk. During my time at the company, I used to route skip truck & hook lifts as well as some refuse collection vehicles.

What accomplishments or projects are you most proud of during your time at Universal Tankers? Passing my CPC is obviously high on my achievement list, also a few years ago we went through 2 weeks when our systems went completely down. During this time as an office, we went through a very challenging time to say the least, but I am proud to say that we got through it and got stronger as a team because of it. Enough time has now passed that we can almost laugh about this turbulent stint.

Do you have any individual accreditations or certifications?

I was lucky that Universal Tankers put me through my Transport Managers CPC (which I may add, I passed 1st time round).

Lastly, could you share a fun fact or hobby that your colleagues might not know about you? When I used to be in the fire service, as well as fulfilling the usual duties, I once saved the life of a little piglet that was drowning when he fell down a grate at barn fire.
