Speedy Freight received the Finance Transformation and Change (Up to £100m Turnover) award at the 2026 Finance Awards.
The company was shortlisted in three categories, with the win highlighting the progress of its finance team in delivering lasting change.

"I'm incredibly proud of what we've accomplished together."
The awards celebrate organisations and individuals driving innovation, leadership and business performance within the finance sector.
Speedy Freight was recognised for implementing new systems, improving reporting, streamlining processes and increasing financial visibility across the business.
These changes have improved operational efficiency and strengthened the financial insight needed for strategic decision-making and future growth.
The company said the award reflects a wider culture of continuous improvement, collaboration and innovation.
Mike Smith, chief executive of Speedy Freight, said: "Awards like these are never about one individual or one team.
