“I am delighted to be taking on this role at an exciting time in FTA’s development. There are big challenges and changes facing the freight industry including driver shortage, road investment and the impending general election. It is important for me to continue the work FTA does in support of our members and I will strive to build on the success and reputation of the Association incorporating the priorities of the freight and logistics sector. We have a strong team in all areas of our activities and following on from 2014, which has been a record year for FTA, it will be a privilege to build on those achievements and take the Association forward.”
During his career David has worked extensively in manufacturing and distribution businesses, and has been responsible for warehousing and supply chains both in the UK and Europe.

David has a B Eng degree in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, as well as being a Chartered Management Accountant with a strong bias towards operational management.
