CMAC Group, the award-winning managed ground transport company, announces the appointment of Neil Micklethwaite as new Chief Operating Officer and the latest member of the executive leadership team.
As part of his new role, Micklethwaite will assume responsibility for executing CMAC’s business strategy, ensuring it continues to meet the growing demand from clients to service their needs globally.
