John Scott
Managing Director
Since he became managing director of Scott Timber in 1990 at the age of 18, John Scott has transformed the family sawmill business into Europe's leading pallet manufacturer. An entrepreneurial and flexible approach to management has resulted in turnover of £96k and a trading loss being converted to around £127m in sales and healthy profit while employment has increased from 4 to almost 1000. Under John's leadership the company continues to identify and develop new market opportunities, expanding through organic growth and acquisition. Re-branded as the Scott Group, John has continued to diversify and restructure the company with divisions now covering packaging, engineering supply and reverse logistics solutions.
