FORS has appointed Geraint Davies as its new concession director, providing a familiar face to many in the sector.
Davies, currently chief operating officer at FORS Gold accredited operator John Raymond Transport, is already well known in the transport sector, including through his senior positions with the RHA and Logistics UK, and involvement with FORS for many years.
He will take up his new position on 3 July and will use his experience to advance the work undertaken by outgoing concession director, Ian Henderson, who has worked to develop closer collaboration with various industry stakeholders, enhance the FORS Professional training portfolio and implement the scheme’s ‘future of accreditation’ strategy.
FORS said Davies’ associations with stakeholders across the transport sector, plus an impressive skill set, made him uniquely placed to further build upon the collaborations FORS has shaped over the last 18 months.
“I am truly passionate about FORS,” said Davies, “and I’m proud to have supported the scheme since the very beginning.
“Ian Henderson and his team have certainly taken the scheme forward and, with my previously held relationships with industry bodies, I’m intent on building upon that success.
“FORS is a well-established entity, and I still see huge potential for it grow further. With a focus on safety, efficiency and sustainability, I know FORS can bring tangible benefits for operators. In fact, I have first-hand experience of exactly what FORS can deliver.”
