Nexus Vehicle Rental has appointed Scott Haddow as its new chief executive officer.
Haddow (pictured, left) will be leading the business alongside managing director John Ellis and finance director Alex Cook, with ex-CEO David Brennan (pictured, right) remaining with the company as executive chairman.
Haddow, who is said to have a proven tech services background, was group CEO for MTI Technology Group for five years, and before that spent seven years as group CEO for Trustmarque Solutions.
His appointment follows recent investment in Nexus from Equistone Partners Europe, which acquired a majority stake from Phoenix Equity Partners.
He will be tasked with supporting the business in its next phase of growth, and developing its product offering into adjacent markets.
Haddow said: “As I start in my new role as CEO at Nexus, I am excited to get to know my new colleagues, as well as our customers and suppliers.
“I’m looking forward to working alongside the impressive management team to broaden our mobility-as-a-service offering, as well as introducing Nexus to new markets, such as plant hire.”
Brennan said: “After nine years as chief executive at Nexus and leading the business through our growth objectives now is the perfect time to hand over the reins to an impressive CEO like Scott, to take the business forward in its next chapter.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Scott into the business, as he brings with him a wealth of experience and a strong track record in delivering growth.
“In my new role as executive chairman, I also look forward to continuing to support the business in what will be an exciting period ahead.”
