Nicholson's Transport add staff to workforce
A TEESSIDE transport company has responded to an upturn in work by adding four new staff to its workforce.
Billingham-based Nicholson’s Transport has employed two new drivers and taken on two new starters in its warehouse and transport office - taking the total workforce to 26.
The recruitment drive comes as Nicholson’s revealed an upturn in its workload, which should see its freight quantities increase by 10% over the year.
Kris Marsay, managing director of Nicholson’s Transport, said: “We have been able to recruit due to additional work on the transport side. We ran a tight ship during the recession and that paid off because we are now seeing more work coming in.
“With the new staff we are capable of handling greater capacity, offering a better service and staying one step ahead of the competition.
“The new appointments will enhance the levels of service received by our customers.”
Nicholson’s Transport has expanded into new service areas by offering a hazardous parcel delivery service, which specialises in the transport of fragile and sensitive goods.
