The shortlisted finalists for the 2019 Talent in Logistics Awards – the only event dedicated to the recruitment, development, engagement and retention of the people who keep the cogs of the supply chain turning daily – have been revealed today.
Finalists have been chosen by a group of expert judges from across the sector, including representatives from BITA (British Industrial Truck Association), Career Ready, FSDF (Food Storage and Distribution Federation), Investors in People and the Institute of Leadership and Management.
The winners of the Talent in Logistics Awards will be revealed during a black-tie event on 27th June 2019 at Hilton DoubleTree, Milton Keynes. Following a drinks reception and three-course meal, celebrity host Rod Woodward will present the awards.
With after-dinner entertainment and attendees from leading organisations, the awards ceremony provides businesses with a chance to demonstrate their commitment to nurturing future talent and rewarding their excellent people.
