The July Roundup

In July, we continued our leadership series advising you with top tips for how to find, attract and retain the best talent within your organization. We also shared some ideas on virtual onboarding for your new employees. For professionals considering new career opportunities, we are offering a various number of exciting roles within the fuel and lubricant markets. 

July was also a very exciting month for ABN as we officially launched our new podcast series featuring exclusive conversations with the brightest minds in the oil industry.

One of our customers saved over £600k per annum by adopting these habits.
