Congratulations to our Wellington Branch Manager Paul Fincham for winning the MITO Ia Ara Aotearoa Transporting New Zealand Outstanding Contribution to Training Award 🥳
Paul has almost 30 years’ experience in the transport industry, including seven years with KAM Transport. He is passionate about developing people and sharing his extensive industry knowledge with both new and experienced staff.
One of the biggest contributions he has made is retaining smaller trucks in his fleet, giving employment opportunities to people as they progress through to their Class 5 licences. He has also supported multiple employees through formal industry training programmes, including Commercial Road Transport micro-credentials, Heavy Vehicle Operator Level 3 qualifications, and ongoing licence progression pathways. Without this pathway and his support, access to employment and advancement within the industry would have been significantly more challenging.
And let’s not forget his Wall of Legends – a wall displaying his staff members’ long service certificates, and an initiative that has now been rolled out to all our KAM branches.
Well done Paul!
