Logistics company Simpex Express has promoted Sarah Shemmans (pictured) to accounts manager.

Sarah joined Simpex in a part-time role four years ago and has since become a full-time member of the accounts team.

Her progression to a leadership role highlights Simpex’s dedication to nurturing talent and empowering women in management positions.

With two UK offices, half of all management roles across the company are held by women.

This achievement reflects Simpex’s belief in the importance of building a strong team aligned with the company’s values.

The commitment to staff well-being is evident in Simpex’s proud record—no team member has ever handed in their notice throughout the company’s history.

Sarah expressed her excitement about her new role, saying: "I’ve really enjoyed my time at Simpex.

“My role has evolved so much since I first joined, especially with the acquisitions of Samphire Cargo, PJL Freight Solutions, Knight Star Freight, and, more recently, ACT Forwarding.

“The accounts department has grown and become even more dynamic, and I’m excited to keep moving forward with our team."

As Simpex continues to grow through strategic acquisitions and expanding services, the company remains committed to fostering talent and creating opportunities for its people to thrive.
