Espace?s Kelly Vasey wins Everywoman Freight Leader Award

Kelly Vasey, Sales & Marketing Director at Espace Global Freight was honoured with the Everywoman ?Freight Leader? Award on June 28th in London. The award ceremony was held in the Londoner Hotel, Leicester Square. The Everywoman Freight Leader Award acknowledges female professionals who have demonstrated exceptional leadership skills, innovation, and dedication within the freight industry. Vasey commented ?Simply to have been nominated for this award meant the world to me ? but to actually win is something else. This recognition is not just for me but for every other strong and talented woman in our business. It represents our shared vision and collective efforts. All I ever want to do is inspire and support the remarkable people in our business and indeed the wider industry. I am truly honoured.? Geoff Yates, Commercial Director at Espace said this about Kelly ?As a tri-lingual language graduate, Kelly was always going to excel in the early 2000s European transport arena. Her hunger to succeed in life led her to diversify away from an operational role though into what she really does best, sales and marketing.?

Everywoman explains on their website: ?Now in their 16th year, the awards celebrate the vital contribution women make to transport and logistics showcasing progression, accomplishments and increasing avenues of opportunity within a traditionally male-dominated industry.? ?Women still only account for 20% of the 1.7 million people working in transport and logistics. Research shows that diverse teams are better positioned to unlock innovation and drive growth. The everywoman in Transport & Logistics Awards plays an important role in highlighting success stories, shifting perceptions and creating role models to inspire future female talent.?
