Steve Greene has been appointed as the new managing director of Epyx following the company’s recent acquisition by FleetCor.

He has been with FleetCor’s business development division since 2009 and has been instrumental in sourcing and closing acquisitions in Brazil, Mexico, Australasia and the UK.  At Epyx, he will have responsibility for strategy, finances and operations.

Before joining FleetCor, Greene was a principal at private equity firm CHB Capital Partners, and has a degree from the University of Notre Dame and an MBA from Harvard Business School.

He said: “I am really pleased to be taking over this role at Epyx. This is a superb business with an outstanding track record of successful innovation and our aim is to continue that approach.

“I am also looking forward to building on the strong customer relationships that we enjoy with our fleet clients by working closely with them and other members of the 1link community.”

The incumbent management team will be reporting into Greene and Greg Connell, former managing director, will work with him to ensure a smooth management transition.
