Volkswagen Group Leasing, the multi-marque leasing arm of Volkswagen Financial Services (UK), has expanded its northern sales team with the appointment of Stuart Adam.

In his new role as corporate sales manager, Adam will be responsible for developing new business in the north-west and southern Scotland. He will be targeting companies with fleets of over 30, who are looking to source passenger and/or commercial vehicles.

Adam brings with over ten years’ experience in the corporate fleet market, working for top FN50 fleet companies. He was previously a key fleet business development manager at Lombard Vehicle Management and prior to that customer service manager at Lex Autolease. He has also worked for MSL Vehicle Solutions as a business development manager.

He moved to Volkswagen Group Leasing because he believes that the company has the potential of being one of the top three fleet leasing companies in the UK and he is determined to contribute to its success story.

He said: “The company has the vision to succeed and grow and I felt that this was a fantastic opportunity for me to further develop my career and flourish too.

“Having just recently joined the company I am amazed how each department supports the other to reach the goal of getting to the top of the FN50.

“The culture from the top down is to provide our customers with the best solutions on the market – from our vehicle offerings through to finance and customer service. This, I feel, is the most effective way to increase market share and build our reputation.”
