EUAN JACKSON JOINS CULINA AS GROUP TRANSPORT DIRECTOR
Appointment strengthens strategic leadership team
Euan Jackson has been appointed as Group Transport Director at Culina Group from 1 December 2011. He is joining the Culina Group from Samworth Brothers Distribution where he most recently held the role of interim Managing Director. Prior to this he held a number of senior posts within Wincanton plc.
With ultimate responsibility for all transport matters within the Group, Euan will report directly to Thomas van Mourik, CEO of Culina Group. He will be based at the company’s Market Drayton head office site.
Euan will work closely with Mick McCarron, Transport Director, who will now focus primarily on chilled operations, delivering ongoing improvements as a consequence of integration and expansion, and ensuring the business is prepared for the challenges of 2012 and beyond.
“This is another step in building a stronger strategic team to deliver our plans to double the business in the next five years,” says Thomas van Mourik. “Euan, Mick and the rest of the team have an excellent blend of expertise and experience to ensure we continue to provide even more added value to our specialist food & drink logistics services.”
