UK Midlands-based global logistics, warehousing and transport business Amco Services International has appointed Mark Jones to the newly created role of operations director following significant business growth.

The appointment sees Jones, who joined Amco in 2016 as head of operations, taking responsibility across the group for Amco’s UK and Eastern European transport and vehicle fleet, driver compliance and Health and Safety. He will manage the group’s warehouse operations, IT and systems with the continuing development of Warehouse And Transport Management Systems as a key focus. Quality Management Systems will also fall under Jones’ span of control.

Don Mucci, Amco’s managing director, says that creating this new role was a logical step. “Pivotal to our success and continued growth is our unwavering focus on our operational functions, systems fleet and warehousing infrastructure. Mark and his team are also key in making sure our customers receive the highest level of service and management attention.”

After impressive 53% growth over the past three years, Amco is positioned for a strong 2020 across their our UK sites. They will continue to invest in IT and capital investments in the UK but also invest into their fleet in Eastern Europe.
