Empowering Women in Fleet (EWiF)

Empowering Women in Fleet is a powerful new initiative launched by Fleet News to champion, celebrate, and elevate the achievements of women working across every part of the fleet sector. 

This pioneering programme brings together influential fleet professionals from both the public and private sectors – including fleet managers, procurement leaders, HR professionals, finance executives, and operational heads – to create a collaborative and forward-thinking community. Empowering Women in Fleet is designed to offer more than recognition; it actively supports women in developing their careers, expanding their networks, and shaping the future of fleet.

Empowering Women in Fleet is run in partnership with Volvo Car UK, Novuna Vehicle Solutions and van racking specialist Sortimo.

Join us at the next EWiF meeting: September 12, Volvo training and development centre Daventry NN11 8QN 12:30pm
