There is no 'I' in the Flexitrans team

Jamie Read, Director (Operations, Sales & Administrative Systems)

Jamie has progressed from an office junior to a Director and shareholder of a new dynamic and exciting freight handling service provider.

At the age of 16 he spent much of his time presenting documents to fellow agents, HMC and Dock officials, as well as being guided as to the do’s and don’ts of ships agency, meeting a wide variety of people such as crew and deck hands, first mates right up to the ship’s skipper.

At the age of 17 money ruled the world and Jamie changed his direction a little to encompass Scandinavian and European forwarders and Customs Clearance developing into what we now call today a supervisor, but then at the age of 17 Jamie was 2 away from the M.D.

After a couple of years Jamie had the opportunity to join a project forwarding company based in Felixstowe working as the P.A. to the M.D. Jamie gained much experience in most aspects of project forwarding in the North Sea Oil industry – so the question to detail is no stranger to him. He gained much experience in moving such things as a packet of nuts & bolts to a 40Mtr long 200T reactor, from a small van movement to a helicopter transportation.

Jamie has also gained experience in controlling various European trailer agencies that included over seeing route planning for delivery of trailers throughout the UK and subsequent reloading of export traffic back to the continent as well as coordinating all sales and finances and haulier/sub contract hire. To compliment these trailer agencies, Jamie also gained experience in general freight and European forwarding, Jamie has managed to build up a vast expanse of knowledge relating to these markets as well as implementing an extremely large and trustworthy haulage and transport subcontractor base for groupage, part load, full load and abnormal loads/transports throughout all of Europe.

Jamie was fortunate to get involved in it all.

Ed Mellamphy, Ocean Freight Manager (worldwide deep sea forwarding & sales)

Ed has over 23 years experience in all aspects of deep sea forwarding having worked with several worldwide container lines, and it is his role to market and develop the deep sea services at Flexitrans Ltd to compliment their European road transport operations.

In September 2001 Ed first passed the Dangerous Goods Safety Advisors exam, and is qualified to advise on safety matters for hazardous cargo for storage and movement by road transport. This had added a new dimension to the services that can be offered by Flexitrans.

Ed also holds a CPC in road transport operations.
