Fleet services provider Alliance Asset Management has restructured its top management team and appointed Vincent St Claire as managing director.

As a result, company founder of the St Neots-based business Jeremy Lavallin has moved to the newly created post of Chief Executive.

Previously he was commercial director of Leeds-based 1car1 Car and Van Rental and has additionally held senior posts with a number of major fleet organisations. These include the AA where he was commercial director of rental services, easyCar (International) and (UK) Ltd and fleet management company Arval.

Lavallin, who founded Alliance 14 years ago, said: “The combination of Vincent’s industry experience and knowledge of Alliance Asset Management’s existing operation is, I believe, a positive step forward.

“We anticipate increasing our marketplace presence in the near future with the launch of a strategic partnership with one of the UK’s largest firm’s of financial and business advisers. This will be the first of a number of new business channels that we will be launching in 2010.”
