Craig is without doubt one of the leading lights in the international and domestic Mail and Parcels industry. I have had the pleasure of working with Craig in two of my previous roles. Craig has a rare ability in that he has both strategic and tactical capabilities. This means that he is able to both understand and deliver on complex concepts and implement and execute the solution. His grasp of the macro and micro needs of business coupled with his people skills and his deep knowledge of the wider supply chain make him an ideal and natural Leader. I would like to endorse and recommend Craig and have learnt and benefited from working with him over the past 9 years.
