PROMOTING CAREERS IN LOGISTICS: MEACHERS GLOBAL LOGISTICS AND THE MTCP APPRENTICESHIPS
At Meachers Global Logistics, we are dedicated to nurturing the careers of the next generation of logistics professionals. Recently we had the pleasure of hosting Josh, a work experience student from Mountbatten School in Romsey, with aspirations to join the Royal Logistics Corps as a driver. Josh’s time with us has been an invaluable opportunity for him to gain first- hand experience in the dynamic field of transport and logistics. Meachers Global Logistics is proud to be a part of the Maritime Transport Careers Programme (MTCP). This initiative aims to address the skills gap in the maritime and transport industries by promoting the wide variety of career opportunities available. Through our involvement with the MTCP, we are dedicated to attracting new talent and supporting the professional development of individuals like Josh.
JOSH’S EXPERIENCE AT MEACHERS
Josh’s week at Meachers has been diverse and enriching. He spent time shadowing our experienced drivers, gaining insights into the daily operations and challenges of logistics on the road. This hands- on experience is crucial for anyone looking to pursue a career in logistics, providing a real-world understanding that goes beyond textbooks. Josh’s experience didn’t stop there. He also had the opportunity to interact with our engineers and mechanics, learning about the maintenance and technical aspects that keep our fleet running efficiently. This holistic approach to work experience ensures that Josh has a well-rounded understanding of the logistics industry. To complement his field experience, Josh participated in office-based administrative work. He shadowed our traffic team, gaining insights into the planning and coordination that underpin successful logistics operations. This experience has provided Josh with a comprehensive view of the logistical planning process, enhancing his knowledge and preparing him for a future career in the Royal Logistics Corps.
