Peak programme leader
Independent parcel carrier Yodel has appointed Mark Horrobin to the newly created role of peak programme director.
Horrobin has joined the company to strengthen and oversee the planning and execution of this year’s Christmas peak, when parcel volumes from Yodel’s retail clients increase dramatically, in line with online sales.
A highly successful board operator, with extensive senior commercial and operating experience in challenging consumer and business markets, he has previously worked in the retail, transport and technology sectors.
The appointment is the latest in a series of peak preparations by the carrier, which has already invested heavily in new sites, fleet, technology and training as well as consumer research.
