5/5
I was completely new to transport prior to working for Evri. Someone saw a potential in me and I have started as a Tramsport Supervisor. After a year and few months when I have started my apprenticeship, i have passed my CPC for transport managers and got promoted to a Transport Manager. Everything i know about transport and management, I've learned because of Evri and the amazing team i am working alongside with.

I have received a lot of suppoet from Evri, as a night shift worker there was no issue in providing a day off for me if I had an apprenticeship meeting in the morning. My line manager and mentor were fantastic and helped me understand the assignments i struggled with.
