The company is pleased to announce a new partnership with Veterans into Logistics, a nationwide charity which places military veterans and members of the armed forces who have recently left, within the logistics industry. Boughey and Veterans in Logistics will work closely together, using our in-house training team to prepare candidates for careers on the road or in the warehouse.
The company is now a Bronze Patron of the charity and will open rolling vacancies to candidates from Veterans into Logistics and place newly qualified or less experienced drivers on a driver mentor scheme. Our Training Team will equip novice drivers with the required skills to join the company on a permanent basis.
Transport Operations Director, Neil Trotter, commented on the new partnership, saying, “We’re thrilled to be able to be in a position where we can help Veterans into Logistics. Veterans and ex-military servicemen and women are excellent team players and have many of the values Boughey holds highly. The work that Veterans into Logistics carries out is an inspiration to us and we are proud to support this fantastic programme.”
Co-founder of Veterans into Logistics, Darren Wright commented on the new partnership, “It’s great to have such a fantastic company such as Boughey Distribution who believe in our mission and who also support ex-military personnel.”
