A true team player, Janice believes the best teams are the ones that pull together to get the job done — and she’s always keen to learn something new along the way. Her outlook is simple: just be happy in whatever it is you’re doing

We’re pleased to welcome Mark Hayto to the team as a Warehouse Operative, based at our LE15 site.

Mark brings a wealth of hands-on experience, having worked across a range of warehousing and shunting roles. His route into logistics came through word of mouth, and he quickly built a reputation for being practical, reliable, and easy to work with.

He’s confident on the FLT, experienced with scanning, working at height, and well-versed in the day-to-day demands of a busy warehouse. Mark learns best by doing, and he enjoys working as part of a team to keep things moving. With previous shunting experience under his belt, he’s also interested in developing further in that area over time.

While the shorter commute was a deciding factor in joining CS Ellis, the working environment and team dynamic were what made the role a good fit.  We’re glad to have him on board.

At school, Ricky always knew he wanted to be a professional driver — though his first job was actually in a surveyor’s office.

In 2020, he took the first real step toward his goal by becoming an apprentice CAT C driver He completed his apprenticeship in 2021 and wasted no time in upskilling to a CAT C+E licence the following year.

When the company he was with sadly went into administration, Ricky knew he wanted to find a company with the same close-knit, family feel. That search led him to CS Ellis.

Now part of the team, Ricky is already thinking about what’s next. He’s keen to keep learning, expand his knowledge of the industry, and work his way up the ranks in the transport office. Managerial ambitions? Absolutely.
