About
I help transport operators protect their O-licences, stay compliant, and win lucrative contracts through industry-leading accreditations.
Based in South Wales, I am a qualified External Transport Manager, Consultant, FORS Auditor, and Mission Zero Auditor. I provide the strategic local oversight and rigorous auditing needed to safeguard your fleet’s reputation, streamline your operations, and keep you on the right side of the Traffic Commissioner.
Transport regulation is unforgiving, and a single compliance gap can put your business at risk. I remove that stress. Whether you need a dedicated External Transport Manager to maintain your legal undertakings, a consultant to fast-track your FORS or Mission Zero approvals, or a partner to implement ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Systems (Lead Auditor training currently awaiting results), I deliver practical, audit-ready solutions tailored to your fleet.
Because I work as both a consultant and an active industry auditor, I know exactly what inspectors look for. I don't just identify risks—I build the workflows that fix them.
