Ogilvie Fleet has expanded its team of area sales managers with the appointment of Darren Hill.

Hill’s appointment follows the early 2015 recruitment of David Raponi to lead Ogilvie Fleet’s growth into the larger corporate sector and the privately-owned business anticipates beefing up its sales team still further in the near future.

Ogilvie Fleet has more than 11,500 vehicles on its books and Ashley Crookes, national sales manager, said: “We are focusing on securing new business as the economy continues to recover and an ever-increasing number of employers review their fleet requirements.”

Hill has brought close to 25 years of contract hire and leasing industry experience to Ogilvie Fleet and has joined from Lookers Leasing, where he held a similar role for almost 10 years. Prior to that, he spent 14 years at Appleyard Vehicle Contracts.

Hill said: “Ogilvie Fleet develops a genuine partnership relationship with its clients, which is unusual in the industry. 

“I wanted a fresh challenge and am excited to join a go-ahead company, which is the leading innovator in the UK contract hire and leasing sector.”
