As Transport and Distribution becomes more complex and fundamental to the efficiency and economies of the Supply Chain, so the processes and systems required to support this become increasingly sophisticated and reliant on innovative Technical and Operational knowledge.
Management and Executive roles within this sector of Logistics are also becoming more strategic and are increasingly major functions within any business. The whole cycle of meeting supply and demand is reliant on the ability to transport and distribute goods effectively and with optimum efficiency and least cost.

Employers now prefer and indeed, expect senior managers and executives in this sector to be qualified to Degree Level in the relevant discipline and fully understand the National and Global complexities of their role.
