Bridgestone appoints national fleet executive

Bridgestone has announced the appointment of Neil Collison in the role of national fleet executive as part of a restructuring of the national fleet approach which has seen the formation of specialist new business and account management teams.

Neil will be moving to the new business fleet team headed up by Paul Emery, after seven years as TBR area sales manager in East Anglia, joining Steve Miller and Barry Franks. The team will report to Greg Ward, Bridgestone’s UK and Ireland commercial sales director, and work in conjunction with an account management focused team led by Barry Crockett.

Originally from Hertfordshire, with a strong background in finance, Collison says: “I’m looking forward to making a difference, and being able to influence new fleet decisions regarding tyre policy and brand.”
