National Courier Award, ‘Services to Industry’ 2020

The Services to Industry award is the best-kept secret in the sector, like the last twenty years of the conventional gala dinner announcements, this year’s winner had no idea until he was joined by colleagues to celebrate the announcement at his HQ in Sheffield.

 

 

The nomination was read to him virtually by last year’s winner, Alistair Cochrane, Chief Development Officer at Whistl from the Marlow Whistl HQ.
