Vehicle Compliance & Training Services is owned and managed by Darren Whitehead. With more than 30 years in the logistics industry, Darren has gained qualifications within transport management which include: Nebs, General NEBOSH, CPC, as an RTITB Instructor and LGV Driver Assessor.
To keep his Continued Professional Development (CPD) up to date with current and future legislation, Darren attends an approved OLAT course every two years and has recently attended four JAUPT-approved CPC courses. He is also a member of the FTA and attends regular updates of the freight council and training courses.
Our trainers have more than 75 years of combined experience, gained across all areas of the transport industry.
We also have close links with Rothera Sharp Solicitors, a specialist firm of transport solicitors who can provide specific advice within the transport industry.
Recently we decided to introduce our own Mobile Maintenance and Repair vehicle to assist operators in meeting their undertakings and ensuring that all vehicles are in a roadworthy condition. This service has been welcomed by our existing clients where they have taken the opportunity.
Kieran Barry has also joined the business with over 35 years of maintenance and repair experience within the logistics industry. Kieran has been in the position of Fleet Engineer at several large companies including British Air Products, Gist and Scania GB.
The business is moving at a quick pace and we have now taken the decision in expanding further to meet the demand. We will be introducing a second mobile repair vehicle possibly leading to a third so that we will be able to give cover 7 days a week and especially when weekends are in high demand by businesses within the construction and waste industry as most of the fleets are stood down on those days.
