TYRA HURLEY, YALE EUROPE MATERIALS HANDLING
Tyra Hurley, aged 20, joined Yale on a three-year apprenticeship in August 2018 with no previous experience of the industry. Since then, she has embraced what could have been a daunting learning curve and has built up a base of knowledge not limited to Yale solutions, but also of the wider pain points and trends within the logistics and materials handling industry.
Tyra says: “Joining Yale as a Major Accounts Sales Apprentice has taught me a lot about the materials handling industry. This industry was unfamiliar to me when I entered it, and as a result I’ve had to learn a lot. In the last eight months I have spoken with people from across the industry and done specific research into aspects of the materials handling industry in preparation for assignments as well as completing several training courses. As a result, I have built a solid foundation of knowledge, which I intend to continue to grow in the future.”
