Free2Move Lease, the wholly-owned subsidiary of PSA Group, has appointed Mark Pickles as UK general manager.

Pickles is a veteran of the Group, having previously undertaken a number of senior roles since joining in 2000 including Peugeot UK marketing director, where he oversaw a complete overhaul of the brand, in preparation for the SUV products launch during the past two years.

He joined Free2Move Lease in September as UK commercial director, but now steps up to the role of general manager replacing Duncan Chumley.  

He said “Free2Move Lease is the UK’s 7th largest leasing company and has a fantastic range of leasing products and services to offer business customers.

“We have ambitious plans to expand our product offering and bring more customers on board, as well as continuing to develop the support we offer our existing customers and dealers. I am delighted to be leading the business into the next phase of its development.”
