Executive Search Consultant | Supply Chain & Logistics Market

Last week I was delighted to attend #Multimodal2024 in Birmingham with my colleagues in the Gillespie Manners supply chain practice. Each year my team attends key #supplychain and #logistics events around the world to meet with our global clients and talk business expansion with industry leaders. The atmosphere at this years’ Multimodal event was fantastic. The exhibition floor was packed, and energies were high. From speaking to so many business leaders, it’s clear that the logistics market is underdoing an exciting transition. The adoption of new technologies like AI and automation are taking our fairly traditional industry to innovative new heights. It was great to see and speak with technology providers at the cutting edge of the logistics market, whose tech is already revolutionising time consuming, manual processes. We were lucky to catch a couple of fascinating talks from James Coombes, Co-Founder at Raft on the impact of AI in Freight Forwarding, and Jarred Miltz at WiseTech Global on digitization and automation. Thank you both for sharing your insights 🙌 As well as having a lot of fun at the event this year, we had many productive conversations with people across all layers of businesses. From all our chats, it’s clear that there’s a sense of cautious optimism regarding the immediate future of the market. New tech innovations will inevitably lead to staffing investments for many businesses, and Gillespie Manners Global Executive Search remains on-hand to offer expert guidance to our valued clients in the market. #SupplyChain #Logistics #ExecutiveSearch #Multimodal2024
