Logistics UK - United Kingdom
David Wells, chief executive of industry body Logistics UK, has stepped down from the role he has held since early 2015.
Wells joined Logistics UK in 2009 as finance director and in the decade he has served as chief executive, has made significant changes to the organisation including an organisational rebrand from the Freight Transport Association, and has overseen growth in member numbers to historic levels.
“Ten years at the helm of this fantastic organisation serving an amazing industry have flown by,” Well says. “At some point it is right to hand the baton to the next leader to take the organisation forward with fresh ideas and energy.
“We’ve made great progress in the last 10 years, but there is still a great deal to do and I’m sure the next leader will enjoy and rise to the challenge”.
The search for Wells’ replacement is underway.
