Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has added to its fleet team with the appointment of Matt Belsom as the new area fleet manager for London and the South East.
Matt comes to the job from contact lens manufacturer CooperVision, where he spent nearly three years as a senior business development manager. In his new role he will be responsible for securing new fleet accounts. Belsom reports directly to the brand’s national fleet manager, Tracey Perry.
The Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles fleet business is structured with two key account managers and five area fleet managers (AFMs) who are collectively responsible for forging direct partnerships with key accounts (fleets with 100+ vehicles) and working with the Business Development Managers from the Van Centres.
Matt Belsom commented on his new role: “It’s great to start the New Year with a fantastic new challenge at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles. I’m looking forward to continuing the success of the fleet team, both in maintaining our excellent relationships with current customers as well as bringing in new businesses.”
Tracey Perry, National Fleet Manager at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles added: “I am delighted to welcome Matt to the brand. Coming from outside the automotive industry, he brings a fresh perspective and excellent customer relationship skills. It’s a really exciting time for the brand, with the UK launch of the new Crafter fast approaching in April 2017. This new model is a game-changer in our brand offering, so it’s great to have the team at full strength.”
