Telematics and fleet management company Airmax has announced the appointment of Richard Perham as its new business development director.

Perham, who has an extensive background gained over some 12 years in the telematics industry, assumes his new role with immediate effect and will spearhead the company’s increasingly successful push into the SME fleet and ‘blue light’ sectors.

He said: “This represents more than just appointing one person into a new role; it represents the creation of a new and more effective team to expand our business and provide higher levels of service to existing customers.”

Among Perham’s recent successes is the increasing roll out of the Airmax system with Dorset Police in partnership with Vauxhall Special Vehicles.
