Permanent operations managers, general managers and operations directors for logistics businesses in Redruth.

Operations across Devon & Cornwall are connected by the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.
