Aidan joins as the business expands its fleet, depot network and service capability following its 50th anniversary year.

Aidan said: “SER has spent five decades building a reputation for being flexible and responsive to customer needs. 

“My goal is to ensure that as we grow larger, we also become more efficient and even more reliable for our customers. 

“We’re building the operational backbone that will support the next 50 years of success.”

Aidan’s appointment strengthens SER’s senior team as it continues its nationwide expansion.
