New Managing Director for
SCA Timber Supply (UK)
With effect from today, 12th March 2013, Neil Emsley is appointed managing director of SCA
Timber Supply in the UK, A Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Logistics & Transport, Neil
first joined SCA Timber Supply as Operations Director in 2007, rising to become Group
Operations Director responsible for SCA’s three UK timber business locations.
Neil Emsley originally joined SCA from a background in retail brand FMCG (fast-moving
consumer goods). Mr Emsley has since been closely involved in the operational
development of SCA Timber Supply internationally, helping establish a strong base for its
retail and builders merchant market operations across Scandinavia, France and Britain.
‟Resource efficiency, whether in timber, energy or transport, is key to operational efficiency
and thus to the service levels and carbon reductions we can deliver to SCA Timber Supply’s
customers going forward,” Neil Emsley comments. ‟Putting these at the heart of our
business creates a stable base for expanding further SCA Timber Supply’s share of the retail
and builders’ merchant markets, to which we are firmly committed in the UK and elsewhere.”
