CONGRATULATIONS to Paul McManus, who has been appointed general manager at AFL, which trades under the broker’s Leasing Made Simple brands.
Paul is rejoining the Slough-based leasing broker after six years away with rival Select Car Leasing. Prior to that, Paul spent nearly 11 years with AFL during his first stint with the company.
A highly valued and experienced auto industry professional with over 20 years in the sector, Paul has worked in a variety of roles from procurement to client facing, before his move into management.
I’m looking forward to re-joining the AFL group at such an exciting time as they continues to grow its established leasing brands while developing significant future projects.
Paul McManus, general manager, AFL
AFL said Paul is known for his amicable and personable approach to business. He is entrusted with promoting this attitude throughout AFL’s staff, as its Leasing Made Simple brands strive to deliver customers a stress-free leasing process with the best possible customer experience.
We are extremely delighted to announce the return of Paul McManus to the company as our new general manager. His expertise and experience will be invaluable to us as we seek to continue AFL group's steady growth. In just a few weeks his positive impact and energy has been evident throughout the business.
Patrick Fagan, business development director, AFL
