Vicky Barrett - Managing Director

Victoria Barrett

Managing Director

I am the MD of Viamaster Training and one of the original founders. My philosophy is simple ‘There is a solution to every problem’. I was approached by the Directors of Viamaster Transport in 2008 to join them – shortly after, Viamaster Training was born. I realised very quickly that my skills were transferable to the training sector and now have that same passion for Driver Training.

Lizzi Greaves

Operations Director

I have been with Viamaster Training since 2019 after working in the Further Education sector for more than 12 years. I currently support LGV apprentices within my role to achieve their qualification.

Liv McNally

Martin Rothwell - Instructor

Martin Rothwell

LGV Instructor

I started my working life as a miner for many years and then began my HGV driving career. After many years driving I decided I would like the opportunity to train others. I can not only drive a truck but I am qualified to drive an InterCity Train 125 225!

Jase Downing

LGV Instructor

I have a military background and over 10 years of experience as an HGV driver, operating Class C+E vehicles. My driving career has given me a strong understanding of safety, discipline, and professional standards. Now, I’m able to pass on my skills and knowledge to others who are learning to drive, helping them develop confidence and competence on the road.

Nigel Bulmer

LGV Instructor

Joined the Army from school at 16 and served for 20 years, upon discharge in 2003 started in the transport industry as a driver, after a number of years completed TMCPC and moved into the office. Whereupon worked my way up from a planner to the senior Transport Manager, then moved into various compliance management roles. Unfortunately, injury forced retirement from most sports (Great Britain athlete 1988 to 1993), but now a keen single figure golfer. Married with 5 children and 7 grandchildren ( hence lots of golf).
