Hatmill sponsors Generation Logistics
In early February, as part of National Apprentice Week, Hatmill’s Simon Dixon and Terry Murphy attended a Parliamentary Reception at the House of Commons to celebrate Generation Logistics.
Hosted by Caroline Ansell MP, they heard from Guy Opperman MP, Greg Smith MP, David Wells OBE and Bethany Windsor on how the Generation Logistics campaign is transforming perceptions of working in the sector and the drive to attract and retain the best young talent to the industry.
What is Generation Logistics?
Generation Logistics is a government-backed initiative managed by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Logistics UK to find and engage the next generation of logistics talent and ensure the resilience of the UK’s supply chain by attracting a diverse range of talent to the sector. The campaign highlights the huge opportunities on offer in the sector, from entry-level pathways through to graduate programmes.
Hatmill’s Founder and CEO Simon Dixon said:
“We are proud to be a sponsor of Generation Logistics. The campaign is so important in highlighting how important the logistics industry is in modern-day Britain.”
“At Hatmill, we’re passionate about supporting the next generation. Through our graduate recruitment programme, our future talent gains exposure to different projects with a wide range of leading, blue-chip clients looking at: warehouse automation, transport and planning, forecasting and inventory.”
“So many current people in logistics got into the industry by accident rather than by design. However, once you’re in logistics there are no regrets. I’d encourage anyone to look at a career in logistics, it really is a job where no two days are the same and from day one, you’ll be developing a wide range of skills and making a difference to the strength of UK supply chains.”
