LeasePlan announces senior UK appointments

Date: 27 July 2018   |   Author: Sean Keywood

LeasePlan has announced two appointments to its UK managing board.

The leasing company has named Chris Black as commercial director and Steve Jones as director for future fleet solutions. 

Black joined LeasePlan in 2017 as new business sales director, and has significantly expanded the new business team for corporate and international business in that short time.

Black's latest role is concerned with enhancing the commercial division. That includes: profitably growing LeasePlan's fleet, strengthening key customer relationships, and focusing on LeasePlan's product offering.

Previously LeasePlan's head of risk, Jones moves into a newly created position, which reflects the firm's focus on the future of the Car-as-a-service sector.

He will have an initial focus on developing and improving the current flexible solutions, like LeasePlan Flexible and the subscription service Subscribe and Drive. 

He will also lead LeasePlan's response to changing consumer requirements in the area of engines and fuel type during the transition to lower emission vehicles.

LeasePlan UK managing director Matt Dyer said: "On behalf of the board, I am delighted to announce the appointments of both Chris and Steve. Chris has impressed since he joined the business last year, and having already seen the benefits of his work, we are excited to promote him into a role that will strengthen our commercial division.

"In addition, Steve's appointment further emphasises our awareness of the emerging opportunities in the market. His role will be innovation-led in the early stages to ensure we continue the progress we have made to date.

"Both Chris and Steve are big assets for our business and will provide an important voice on the managing board. It is great to see two new internal promotions which enable us to continue and advance the strong position we are in as a business in these areas."
