Cast UK has added fresh expertise to its logistics recruitment offering with the appointment of Daniel Bevan and Rob Garner.

A former operations manager at Newbreed Freight, Daniel will take up the role of Logistics Consultant at Cast UK. Having progressed through a number of positions since joining Cheshire-based Newbreed in 2005, the graduate of Edge Hill University has considerable experience of global sourcing and purchasing. He has worked extensively with blue-chip companies in the automotive sector and his past achievements include handling an annual turnover of £5 million in freight. Daniel also has a Masters in Business Administration from the University of Chester and a BTEC National Diploma in Import and Export Customs and Excise Procedures from the British International Freight Association (BIFA).

His fellow new starter Rob joins Cast UK from DHL Services, where he worked as a contract manager for DBC Foodservice in Warrington. Rob is expected to settle quickly into his new role as a recruitment consultant, having worked on strategic supply chain projects with a number of leading companies since graduating from Manchester Metropolitan University with a degree in environmental science. A strong communicator with specialist knowledge of contract implementation and CRM, he counts Wincanton, Shell UK, AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson Pacific among his former employers. Rob will bring problem-solving expertise and a strategic approach to the role at Cast UK, having assisted major warehouse stock transfers and established inventory control systems in his most recent position at DHL. He also has experience of devising training programmes for warehouse and transport functions.

Daniel and Rob are the latest consultants to bring a wealth of industry expertise to specialist recruitment roles at Cast UK. Cast UK prides itself on nurturing a team of talented individuals with proven track records within the procurement, logistics and supply chain disciplines. This means clients can be sure the organisation really understands the market and the specialist skills required to succeed in the current business climate.

Gary Robinson, Managing Director of the Cast UK Logistics division, commented “I am delighted to have Rob and Daniel join our business. Their expertise, track record of success, and people skills will be a real asset to our business. They have already established themselves as key members of our team and started to develop client relationships with our Logistics customers. This is exciting times for Rob & Daniel as well as Cast UK Logistics.”
