Having a background in Technical Theatre and Secondary Education if you would have asked me 20 years ago; do I envisage running a Domestic Haulage business? I would have thought you were mad. After leaving the Education Sector I moved onto a job in Freight Forwarding in our sister company. I worked specifically on the Iberian department dealing mainly with Andorra, Gibraltar, Madrid and Barcelona.
It’s now 20 years later and I am happy to be leading Ital Transport UK Ltd, a unique domestic haulage company that specialises in the transport of Dangerous Goods. As part of my leadership vision, I feel that it is important that management should have first-hand knowledge of the job. Therefore I, as well as being a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA), have also completed my driver training and ADR driver training. If you’re very lucky you could quite likely see me out and about on the road leading by example. Building on my previous knowledge and skills from the education sector I offer onsite training to all employees from the ‘Ital Group’ on varying subjects; from driver’s hours and compliance, through to Dangerous Goods awareness training. I also provide Dangerous Goods consultancy services to our customer base.
We have a happy, experienced and dedicated team of drivers and office staff who truly are professionals within the industry. Outside of the office in my ‘spare time’ I am a magistrate, a Scout
Leader and a keen fell walker and can often be found on wet and windy hills in the Lake district.
Phil’s background since leaving school in 1978 has been a combination of various jobs within the freight industry, plus organist/keyboard player in many clubs and pubs around Manchester. Between 1978 and 1983 he worked for several companies in the Ocean Freight sector dealing with Canada & Malta, plus general forwarding anywhere & everywhere. After a short spell as full time musician between 1983 & 1986, in 1989, the company he was working for at that time started an Italian service which he was to control. This was the start of his development in the Italian market which eventually led to the foundation of Ital Logistics, and subsequently Ital Transport (UK).
Whilst no longer playing music as a profession, he still enjoys playing and recording music at home. And when the weather allows, he occasionally humiliates himself playing golf
Rebecca Moth brings a unique blend of logistics know-how and great energy to the team. With a solid background in freight and logistics, she knows exactly how to keep things moving efficiently and make sure everything ends up exactly where it needs to be.
Outside of work, Rebecca has a well-documented appreciation for cows (no, we’re not entirely sure why either, but we respect it), and is the proud owner of a dog called Peaches—who keeps her just as busy outside of work as she is in it. When she’s not perfecting supply chains, she’s likely planning her next festival trip, where her love for rave music ensures she has far more stamina than the rest of us would care to admit.
Dependable, energetic, and always up for a laugh, Rebecca keeps things running smoothly while bringing a bit of personality to everything she does.

Charlotte is the youngest members of the team, joining us with no previous experience in the transport industry. Taking to her work like a duck to water, she has been a very welcome member of the team. She even occasionally will bring her chocolate Labrador ‘Jr’ into the office.
Charlotte is the niece of Kevin (Class 1 driver) building on the family ethos that our company is based around. Charlotte’s favourite food has to be Hash Browns (preferably from McDonalds) and she can more often than not be found hiding them in her desk drawers!

Teresa is fairly new to the team but has already had a positive impact within the department.
She not only acts as our Credit Control Manager but also steps in as the Office and Drivers’ Welfare and HR Manager at times. As Teresa is new to the role, she is currently working on a part-time basis. She can often be seen inspecting the various boxes within the office and ensuring the ratchet straps are stored correctly.
Teresa is also a peripatetic worker and can be found at any desk (usually where she’ll get the most cuddles).
Occasionally, members of staff from our sister company (Ital Logistics) will try to steal her… despite this, she remains a dedicated and loyal member of our team.
