Wettenhalls last week announced a revised executive leadership structure internally.
The restructure is designed as part of a continuous development plan to enhance its transport services for customers.
Today the Melbourne-based business announced two key appointments including a new Managing Director that will see Martin Kelly succeed Mike Lean in the role.
This was Lean’s ninth year in the job.
General Manager Gary Peatling has shifted positions within the business to Chief Operations Officer.
“With these new appointments, the focus is on uniting our operations teams as a service unit ensuring our customers receive easy access to our full complement of transport services and skilled and expert transport team,” the company said in a statement.
“As a business we remain focused on customer service delivery, communication, system and process improvement, and safety to deliver a customer experience that is aligned with our customers needs and resolves their transport challenges.”
Kelly has been a director at the company since 2014. Previously he worked at PwC Australia.
To ensure it innovated to deliver solution-based transport strategies as part of its core focus each and everyday, Wettenhalls identified that it would listen, work collaboratively and continually challenge its own ways of working.
In the statement, Wettenhalls said it was committed to working with customers to develop services and to ensure it continued to deliver valued transport services in step with “our customers’ business needs and transport challenges.”
“Wettenhalls is excited about this next phase of our business’s development” the company said.
