Everyone’s journey into the transport industry is unique. In Carlos Enrique S\u00e1nchez’s case, his search for stability and the guidance of his father led him to discover a profession where he could build a future. Today, he is part of the Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo team, where he has found far more than just a job: he has found an environment built on trust, professional growth and teamwork.<\/p>\n

Some decisions have the power to change the course of a person’s life. For Carlos Enrique S\u00e1nchez, a conversation with his father marked the beginning of a professional journey that, more than a decade later, he continues with the same enthusiasm. Now 42 years old and with around thirteen years of experience in road transport, he says he has found in this profession the stability and peace of mind he had been searching for.<\/p>\n

Although he did not grow up in a family of lorry drivers, the transport industry was always present in his life in one way or another. His uncle and godfather both worked in the sector, so it was never unfamiliar to him. However, his first professional experiences followed a very different path.<\/p>\n

For several years, he worked in the construction industry, driving a concrete mixer lorry for a subcontractor. At the same time, he held a second job as a nightclub security officer during the evenings. Those were years of hard work and long hours, until he realised he wanted a career offering greater stability and long-term prospects.<\/p>\n

At that point, his father’s support proved decisive. He encouraged Carlos to pursue a profession where he could build a solid and lasting career. Although his father passed away relatively recently, Carlos remembers those conversations with great affection and believes they played a crucial role in shaping the future he enjoys today.<\/p>\n

Determined to progress professionally, he obtained his ADR certificate for the transport of dangerous goods, opening up new opportunities within the industry and specialising in a field that demands extensive training, responsibility and professionalism.<\/p>\n

Before joining Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo, Carlos worked as a self-employed driver for another transport company, an experience he remembers as particularly disappointing due to the lack of professionalism, frequent payment delays and poor management practices.<\/p>\n

That experience made him appreciate even more what he found when he joined Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo. From the very beginning, he recognised a serious and professional company where people genuinely matter and where he could carry out his work with confidence and peace of mind.<\/p>\n

Carlos particularly values the opportunity that Julene Fern\u00e1ndez gave him from day one, placing her trust in him and allowing him to develop professionally within the company. He also expresses his gratitude to his colleague Agust\u00edn Fern\u00e1ndez, an experienced driver whom he considers a role model and from whom he has learned a great deal throughout his career.<\/p>\n

His colleagues describe him as approachable, hardworking and always willing to help. Carlos admits that he is naturally energetic, a quality that perfectly suits the wide range of responsibilities he currently carries out. Alongside his international driving routes, mainly across France and Belgium, he coordinates vehicle maintenance with workshops and plays an active role in training new drivers joining the company.<\/p>\n

His work has taken him to many places, although he has a particular fondness for Bayonne and Bordeaux, cities he enjoyed so much that he later returned to visit in his free time. Poland is currently at the top of the list of destinations he would still like to discover.<\/p>\n

After more than ten years behind the wheel, Carlos knows that road transport requires responsibility, adaptability and commitment. At the same time, he firmly believes that when you work in an environment based on trust, respect and stability, facing any challenge becomes much easier.<\/p>\n

His approach to the profession reflects the same values that define Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo: commitment, professionalism, teamwork and close relationships. When he talks about the future, he has no doubts. His goal is to continue being part of the company for many years to come and, if possible, to retire as a member of the Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo team.<\/p>\n

Descifrando el \u00e9xito de Braulio: Conoce su historia y logros en nuestra empresa<\/h1>\r\nOs dejamos una peque\u00f1a entrevista realizada a Braulio, uno de los integrantes de nuestro equipo. En ella podr\u00e1s conocer m\u00e1s sobre su perspectiva y experiencia trabajando junto a nosotros. \u00a1Comencemos!<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nBraulio lleva trabajando en Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo desde 2002. <\/span>Aunque siempre ha ido por libre, ya que es ch\u00f3fer aut\u00f3nomo con cami\u00f3n propio, siente que forma parte de la historia de la empresa: <\/span>\u201ccuando yo empec\u00e9 \u00e9ramos 8 y ahora somos m\u00e1s de 20<\/span><\/i> \u201c.<\/span>\r\n\r\nEs un hombre amable y cercano, desde el primer momento resulta f\u00e1cil comunicarse con \u00e9l. Da la sensaci\u00f3n de que est\u00e1 satisfecho consigo mismo, orgulloso de ser de Laredo (Cantabria) y de sus dos hijos Rub\u00e9n y David, algo que queda patente nada m\u00e1s verlo rotulado en su cami\u00f3n que pasea por carreteras europeas, desde Espa\u00f1a hasta B\u00e9lgica.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nLa profesi\u00f3n le viene de tradici\u00f3n familiar, su padre era camionero de ruta corta. Braulio hace ruta internacional transportando sustancias peligrosas lo que le mantiene fuera toda la semana pero la ventaja es que el fin de semana est\u00e1 de vuelta en casa ya que este tipo de sustancias no pueden ser transportadas en d\u00edas festivos. Pero por esta misma raz\u00f3n en algunas ocasiones puede tener que pasar un d\u00eda entero inmovilizado si coincide que es festivo en un lugar del trayecto, tiempo que aprovecha a veces para pasear.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDice que ser aut\u00f3nomo ya no es lo que era, pero ya est\u00e1 acostumbrado a cierta libertad, le gusta mantener su independencia y eso le compensa aunque recalca que los m\u00e1rgenes de beneficio de ahora no son como los de antes.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0Est\u00e1 contento trabajando con Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo, y aunque tuviera otras posibilidades de trabajo seguir\u00eda all\u00ed, de hecho ha tenido otras ofertas pero no ha dudado en ning\u00fan momento,\u00a0 porque para Braulio la confianza es un grado y valora especialmente la relaci\u00f3n personal y profesional que mantiene con la empresa. Se conocen desde hace a\u00f1os y se coordinan perfectamente. Por ejemplo, su condici\u00f3n de aut\u00f3nomo favorece que trabaje en fechas que pueden interesar a la empresa y libre en otro momento que le venga bien a \u00e9l.<\/span>\r\n\r\nTambi\u00e9n recuerda en especial, la comprensi\u00f3n que recibi\u00f3 en un momento complicado de su vida personal en el que necesit\u00f3 tiempo libre.<\/span>\r\n\r\nAdem\u00e1s sabe que desde Fern\u00e1ndez y Aedo la cobertura es completa y para m\u00e1s comodidad incluso trabajan con el mismo seguro. Desde la empresa siempre se ocupan del cliente de manera que Braulio se pueda centrar en su propio trabajo, y si surgiera alg\u00fan imprevisto del tipo que sea, hacen las gestiones necesarias para resolverlo y que pueda seguir su ruta sin problemas. No escatiman en detalles, durante el a\u00f1o proporcionan los EPI-s necesarios para desarrollar el trabajo en condiciones seguras, incluso en \u00e9poca de pandemia abastecieron de mascarillas, guantes y gel a los ch\u00f3feres aut\u00f3nomos igual que a los ch\u00f3feres empleados, incluso dieron a los conductores una prima extra.<\/span>\r\n\r\nDespu\u00e9s de tantos a\u00f1os de experiencia, Braulio se enfrenta al trabajo con tranquilidad, sin tensi\u00f3n, sabe que cumpliendo todas las normas todo va a ir bien. Tiene el permiso ADR (Acuerdo Europeo sobre el transporte internacional de cargas peligrosas por v\u00eda terrestre) y el CAP que es el certificado obligatorio para conductores de camiones de m\u00e1s de 3500kg.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0Braulio tiene su cami\u00f3n muy cuidado, como tiene que ser, no en vano los dos madrugan mucho y sabe bien el largo camino que les espera y los c\u00e1lculos que hay que hacer para que todo cuadre bien, hay que pasar pronto Par\u00eds para evitar el tr\u00e1fico, despu\u00e9s toca desayunar, comer a las 14:00 o 15:00, cargar en B\u00e9lgica a la hora concertada e inicio del viaje de vuelta...\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nComo es com\u00fan en los camiones que hacen rutas largas, est\u00e1 totalmente equipado: Televisi\u00f3n, nevera, port\u00e1til, y no falta una impresora que resulta muy pr\u00e1ctica para pasar a papel la documentaci\u00f3n que se recibe por email y que hay que utilizar en las entregas.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nEste cami\u00f3n adem\u00e1s es protagonista del calendario que Braulio manda imprimir, encabezado por una fotograf\u00eda de dicho cami\u00f3n, y que tiene sus adeptos que lo esperan cada a\u00f1o.<\/span>\r\n\r\nPara Braulio, su cami\u00f3n es su otra casa, su compa\u00f1ero de viaje y su futuro.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n\"Camionero\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Camionero\"\r\n\r\nSi desea tener m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n sobre transpor<\/span>te mercanc\u00edas peligrosas\u00a0 o de alguno de nuestros servicios no dude en contactar<\/a> con nosotros.\r\n\r\n\u00a0","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[37],"class_list":["post-260599","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-en","tag-seguridad-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260599","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=260599"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260599\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":260602,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/260599\/revisions\/260602"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/260558"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=260599"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=260599"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fernandezaedo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=260599"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
