Cap HPI has welcomed Amanda Hardcastle (pictured) as its new HR director.

Hardcastle joins the business having previously worked at Close Brothers Motor Finance and Call Credit Information Group. Notably, she supported the management team during the merger of Cap and HPI in 2015.

Reporting to Jean-François Boulineau, acting head of human resources at Solera Holdings, she will be responsible for supporting international rollout and sourcing talent while creating a high-performance culture.  

Hardcastle said: “Cap HPI continues to evolve as a leading provider of digital and data solutions across the automotive supply chain. Our expansion will be supported by creating a high-performance culture that can attract and retain the best talent the industry has to offer.” 

The company recently launched its European data set to support the first phase of its growth plans, which are underpinned by a new global coding system.

A new international hub is being established in the UK to ensure its systems, coding, data collection processes, and valuation methodologies are consistent, scalable and repeatable for every country that Cap HPI enters.
