THE HEAD OF Skills for Logistics (SfL) has said a new scheme aimed at recruiting ex-services personnel into the road transport industry is not just for large operators. Speaking earlier this month at the launch of SfL’s Military Transitions to Logistics programme, chief executive Mick Jackson said the initiative would benefit everyone. “This is absolutely not just aimed at larger employers,” said Jackson. “We have 50 to 60 companies signed up, but only a third are the ‘bigger’ firms [3PLs].” SfL set up the programme, which aims to attract 1,000 ex-armed forces personnel into a job in logistics by March 2013, with £1.4m of funding.
