Making his Mark in Peterborough

Mark has enjoyed a 40-year career in logistics, distribution, and operational management. Over that time, he’s worked in warehouse management, chilled and ambient distribution, and large-scale operations supplying major supermarkets and food manufacturers. His most recent posting was Operations Director at Knowles Logistics.

Working alongside Mark in the Peterborough office is his daughter Megan Hubbard. Mark is also retaining long-standing staff member Louise Jonker.

Commenting on his decision to buy his own business, Mark said:

From my past experience I know that recruitment agencies provide an essential service. If you need a speedy replacement to recover a situation you need a good partner to work with. That’s Driver Hire. They’re a top brand, compliant, respected and dedicated to the industry. When the opportunity came along, it was perfectly timed. Coupled with my in-depth industry knowledge and my colleagues at Driver Hire Peterborough, we’ve got the perfect team to continue this office’s success. I’m looking forward to meeting clients and drivers and continuing the trusted relationships this office has built over the years.
