Jamie Dickinson appointed CEO to lead YEEP! open parcel locker network as it ramps up its growth
YEEP!, a UK-based open parcel locker network, has appointed Jamie Dickinson as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
He joins from Exelot UK, where he held several senior leadership positions, including Chief Operating Officer, Managing Director UK, and Vice President USA.
Dickinson succeeds Noël Shapton who stepped down at the end of November after playing a key role as co-founder during YEEP!’s formative years and latterly as CEO, helping to shape the company’s direction and overseeing the first phase deployment of its UK network.
YEEP! currently operates more than 2,250 locker locations across transport hubs, retail destinations, community spaces and residential areas, including what is claimed to be the country’s first and largest solar powered parcel locker network.
“I’m delighted to be joining YEEP! at such an exciting moment,” says Dickinson. “The team has created an incredible platform with enormous potential, built on scalable technology, strong partnerships and a clear vision to make parcel delivery more efficient, convenient and sustainable.”
“As we ramp up our growth, our goal is to become the UK’s largest and most successful open locker network. Our focus now is on moving faster, expanding further, reaching more communities, and delivering a truly world class out-of-home parcel delivery experience.”
2025 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS
Out of home delivery was a key focus area at the 2025 RTIH Innovation Awards.
We received a record number of entries and many fantastic examples of the continued resilience and dynamism of the retail space during hugely challenging times.
For a full rundown of all of the shortlisted entries, click here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC in Central London on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
