2020 everywoman in Transport and Logistics Awards
DRIVING CHANGE
Returning for its 13th year this established industry event is continuing its mission to uncover female role models, identify male agents of change and transform the industry perception.
In these changeable times, it is more crucial than ever to have a multi-skilled workforce to manage this change and to build a team of balance and productivity. As the sector keeps pace with new technology, so many roles increasingly require a multi-skilled workforce covering project management, sales, customer services and planning in addition to the more traditional driving and warehouse positions.
With the 75th anniversary of VE Day in 2020, we will also be celebrating the role women took in T&L for the first time in World War 2. From 1941, women were called up for war work, in roles such as mechanics, engineers, munitions workers, air raid wardens, bus and fire engine drivers.
WHO IS IT FOR?
The awards are designed to be as inclusive as possible and are open to women at all stages of their career, from those who go above and beyond the call of duty in their role, to leaders in organisations, also male agents of change within the industry.
