Looking To The Future……..

So, here goes then!


I’m a LinkedIn novice, having spent a lifetime as a driver!


Background- after a serious car accident in 2020 that very nearly killed me I started thinking about the future, as you do when you came so close to not having one!


Driving was my dream job, I’ve driven so many things from minibuses and coaches to trucks & vans and even plant machiny like articulated dumper trucks & diggers in a career that crossed 20+ countries in Europe from Portugal to Hungary to Norway to Finland to Ireland and everywhere in between so many times over a near 25 year career.. I had the time of my life, it was amazing, but……


I’ve done all I dreamed of. My CV looks ridiculous because I wanted to experience everything, which I did. But this has left me wondering what’s next? Do I simply repeat everything over the next 20 years. Which would be easy but not fulfilling or do I strike out on a new path? I’m choosing the latter.  


I’m incredibly experienced as a driver but obviously not much else and I know it’ll be far from easy, but I’ve never been content to take the easy path, easy is boring. 


This post is simply a long winded way to put out there that I’m hunting for new challenges away from driving. The areas I think I’m best at would be marketing, social media, education & maybe sales. I want to stay in the transport industry and working for a truck manufacturer would be ideal but obviously this isn’t set in stone, nothing is.


I’m under no illusions, I know and accept I would be starting at the bottom, that’s only right. I’m not expecting to be parachuted into a managerial role..


What can I give? When switched on by something I’m unstoppable. Super reliable, if I say I’ll do something I’ll do it and incredibly enthusiastic about any job I choose.


As far as marketing and sales goes I have built up very popular blog and have a big social media presence. I’ve been a YouTuber 13 years. I also regularly write for Truck & Driver magazine as well as setting up and running my online Trucking Stuff store, I’m quite good at merchandise!


So. There goes…..it’s out there

The Flexibility of In-House Training, Without The Cost

I offer you all the advantages of having an in house trainer without the cost or commitment. I will quote for your business based on how many drivers will need training over the course of a year, then you or your drivers can simply contact me when they wish to attend one of my online timetabled courses, taking away all the stress of trying to arrange up to 20 drivers to sit a course on the same day, much more flexible for your business and I take all the stress out of it. Let’s face it running a transport company is stress enough! I run daytime, evening and weekend courses, times to suit everyone. I also find this method is much more popular with the drivers. I am however also happy to quote for your online or in person courses, up to 20 at a time at times and dates to suit you at any location. Everyone who attends my courses and your office staff will be given my contact details and told I’m available at any time to help and advise as required. I’m always here to help customers, basic...
