We are delighted to continue supporting an independent, family-run car and van leasing specialist with over 20 years in the motor industry. We are FCA authorised and regulated and a BVRLA member, operating across car and van leasing, fleet, business contract hire and salary sacrifice. Their fleet department delivers strong volume today, anchored by major corporate relationships alongside a growing base of business customers, and they are investing to take it substantially further, with growth led by new business, renewals and a customer database built over more than a decade.
The Role
The Fleet Sales Manager will own and be accountable for the fleet number, owning the current customer base and being responsible for delivering growth as a 'player manager'. This is not a job for a person who cannot deliver new business growth directly and lead the existing team members to do the same.
