CONGRATULATIONS to Duncan Chumley (above) who has been appointed CEO of the AAM Group.
Duncan, formerly CEO of car subscription firm Mycardirect and broker division BestCarFinder, now adds the Onwrd rental brand to his responsibilities.
His appointment comes as Mycardirect celebrates its three year anniversary, hvaing commenced trading in the middle of the Covid crisis.
Under Duncan’s guidance, the subscription business has achieved year on year growth and the company says it prospects for future growth remain strong with both corporate and consumer demand for a flexible vehicle solution continuing.
Currently, Mycardirect says its subscriber base is 2,000, but plans to expand this to 6,000 over the coming three years.
Over the past three years, we've witnessed consistent growth and have consistently exceeded our targets, even in the face of substantial economic uncertainty. We attribute our success to the growing appeal and recognition of the unique advantages of vehicle subscription, a customer-centric proposition that offers unparalleled flexibility. In addition, our commitment to top-notch customer service sets us apart. Whilst we are fully digitalised, our customers appreciate speaking with us, and we are committed to meeting this demand. As I look forward to the next three years, I am very confident that we will continue our upward trajectory, reaching ambitious targets and contributing to the growth of this dynamic industry.
