The start point for the best source of fleet information |
20. Phil Robson, Peugeot, director of fleet and used vehicle operations (up 5)
Robson is about to oversee the launch of the crucial new 308 hatchback, a car coming with an 82g/km variant, and the long-awaited electric Partner.
19. Graham Wheeler, Volkswagen Financial Services, managing director (No Change)
Wheeler shares MD responsibilities with joint boss Lisa Stacey, and the company recently started work on its new headquarters in Milton Keynes.
18. James Douglas, Audi, fleet sales director (up 14)
Douglas leaps up our table after moving from Nissan to Audi at the back end of last year, and now heads fleet operations for the top-five selling fleet brand.
17. Callum Gibson, FleetCor, managing director (New Entry)
FleetCor, already owner of The Fuelcard Company brand, bought the industry-leading Allstar from Arval in 2012, and changes to terms and conditions invoked earlier this year, specifically a new transaction fee, caused massive controversy.
16. Mel Dawson, ALD, managing director (New Entry)
Dawson succeeded Keith Allen as ALD Automotive boss at the beginning of this year, having been with the firm since 1997, most recently as sales director. ALD specialises in white label leasing products for a number of car manufacturers.
15. Patrick McLoughlin, Government, transport secretary (down 6)
The seeming revolving office door at the Department for Transport has slowed, with McLoughlin having outlasted predecessor Justine Greening's 10 months in charge since he took over a year ago. Roadspace expansion and the potential to pay for extra capacity with tolls are on his agenda.
14. Benoit Dilly, Arval, chief executive (New Entry)
Dilly took over from Bart Beckers last month, having moved internally from his previous role with parent company BNP Paribas, and leads the UK top-five leasing firm that earlier this summer launched a new rental calculator tool that measures the cost of rental versus grey fleet. The online device won a 2013 BusinessCar Techie award for innovation.
13. Steve Chater, BMW, head of corporate sales (up 4)
With BMW now comfortably in fourth place in the fleet sales chart and recording the strongest growth of the top eight manufacturers, Mini also firmly in the top 20 and the 3-series in the top six models, things are looking good for Chater. Next up is the launch of a new brand in the form of the electric BMW i.
12. Gerry Keaney, British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association, chief executive (New Entry)
Keaney left Volvo's Swedish HQ to take over from the long-serving John Lewis at the head of the vehicle rental and leasing representative, and has already declared that he wants to make the BVRLA more vocal.
11. Denis Keenan, KeeResources, managing director (down 1)
Another year of extending the reach of KeeResources for Keenan, including the KwikCarcost whole-life costs platform used by BusinessCar for all our cost analysis that is employed by increasing numbers of manufacturers.
