New MD for CEVA

CEVO Logistics has named Clayton Noble as its new Managing Director of its operations in Australia and New Zealand.

Mr Noble joins CEVA from Fuji Xerox Australia, where as Chief Operations Officer he was responsible for running the business’ operational functions, including supply chain, customer support, managed services, professional services and business outsourcing services.

He also has experience in senior executive positions heading up supply chain and logistics functions, with organisations including Dell (Asia Pacific and Japan), BAX Global and the Coles Myer Group.

Noble replaces Casey Fisher, who is returning to the US to become CEVA’s Executive Vice President Business Development of its North American operations.

 Xavier Urbain, CEVA’s Chief Executive Officer, said the appointment would only strengthen the firm's service offering.

"I am thrilled that Clayton has joined CEVA, bringing both us and our customers his diverse skill set, strategic vision, and strong track record of achieving value and creating growth through innovation and the implementation of sound strategies," he said.

"I look forward to seeing him support our customers’ strategies and developing our operational footprint across Australia and New Zealand.

"I would also like to thank Casey for his contribution at the helm of CEVA in Australia and NZ over the past three years. He played a key role in successfully restructuring the business, introducing a new suite of offerings and increasing overall customer satisfaction."

 Mr Noble said he was looking forward to his latest challenge.

"I am excited to join CEVA at such an important time in the company’s evolution," he said.

"CEVA already has an excellent reputation in the industry and I look forward to helping drive further growth, built on operations excellence, outstanding customer service and the delivery of innovative solutions."
