CONGRATULATIONS to John Deane, who has been appointed national sales manager at Wessex Fleet.
John joins the Wiltshire leasing broker with 20 years in the industry and a wealth of experience to help Wessex Fleet in the next phase of its growth.
Having started his career at Fleet Support Group, where he was instrumental in the company’s development, John has a CV that includes Lombard Vehicle Management and Lombard Asset Finance as well as the Holman Group (at ARI).
His expertise encompasses fleet, maintenance, risk, accident and tyre management, as well as finance and leasing, for fleets as large as 6,000 to 10,000 vehicles.
I’m very excited to be joining Wessex Fleet because they’ve always had a great reputation. The Wessex Fleet team are known to go ‘over and above’ in terms of customer service and looking after clients. I didn’t hesitate in making the decision.
Based near Bath, John hails from Plymouth and was originally a chemist specialising in rubber. Outside of work one of his passions is rugby, in particular developing youth teams for Bath Rugby and Dorset Wiltshire Rugby. John also plays golf and football, with field sports taking up his spare time in the winter months.
We’re absolutely delighted to welcome John on board. With our continued growth and ambitious plans for the future, appointing John in this key role is integral to us moving forward as company.
