Meet the Management
Maria Puzone - Managing Director
Maria has over 15 years of experience in customer relations management. Her strong and dynamic leadership combined with an undeniably feminine touch, ensures the M & B Transport services team achieves its strategic objectives. Maria holds a degree in Accountancy.
“Being a female in a male dominated industry certainly has its challenges,” Maria says. “Men tend to take a more mellow approach when faced with a woman rather than one of their male counterparts.”
Maria’s recipe for success is nothing more than hard work, honour, integrity and passion. “I embrace each challenge and am always willing to learn something new and to take on new challenges.
“I always look for the positive and surround myself with a good team. I also trust my instincts and definitely have a good sense of humour.”
