Josh Mannix

I joined Hatmill after several roles at Asda Logistics Services and bring nearly a decade of experience in warehouse automation and innovation. My key projects include designing and implementing multi-temperature automated systems across two sites for a leading food-to-go retailer, and leading the delivery of a £7m automation project for a large chemical company.  

Building relationships with clients to identify problems and land change through automation and innovation. 

I joined Hatmill after completing several roles at Asda Logistics Services in warehouse management, transport, and logistics engineering. I have nearly a decade of experience in warehouse automation, with expertise in a range of advanced technologies including robotics, automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). My experience spans from automation concept development to solution design and managing projects through to system sign-off. I hold a first-class degree in Logistics and Supply Chain Management. 

Key experience: 

  • Warehouse automation design consultant for a leading food-to-go retailer. Working within the automation workstream to manage the design and installation of multi-temperature automated systems across two sites. Both sites measured approximately 400k sq ft with an internal height of 20m. The total automation investment was valued at £38m 
  • Project lead on a £7m automation project for a large chemical company which included implementing an ASRS solution, vertical storage carousel, and AGV trucks (counterbalance and VNA). 
  • Automation design consultant for a large 3PL, identifying opportunities to introduce automation technology and condense the distribution centre estate 
  • Completed an end-to-end global Supply Chain review for a large UK fashion retailer, identifying over £5m of potential cost savings  
  • Supported an online fashion retailer with a new DC start-up operation 

The high calibre of consultants at Hatmill combined with the teal culture makes it an exciting place to be.

By improving their demand forecast, we helped one client save £3m in agency staffing costs (that’s an 18% reduction).
